If you are using any of the listed phones below, you might not be able to access WhatsApp on it from November 1, 2021


 WhatsApp will reportedly stop working on some smartphones from November 1. Facebook, the parenting company of the messaging app, announced last month to end WhatsApp services from select devices. The reason for terminating services on these smartphones is that WhatsApp will no longer support old versions of Android and iOS to ensure that the app's security and users' privacy are maintained. According to WhatsApp, users with smartphones that support Android OS 4.1 and iOS 10 and subsequent versions will run without any problem. However, those using smartphones with old operating systems are all set to run out of access to WhatsApp.
