REVEALED: Real reason why WhatsApp will stop working on some phones after 9 days
Android and iOS users can check the software installed in their smartphones via accessing the mobile phone settings.
WhatsApp is likely to stop working on several smartphones in 9 days - November 1. The Facebook-owned messaging app had recently announced that it would not be operable on older versions of Android and iOS, reports said.
If this is true and you are blocked out of WhatsApp, then you will not be able to send or view messages, photos, or videos on your old smartphones.
It is important to note that if you have a smartphone that supports Android OS 4.1 and above and iOS 10 and above then you will be the only one who will be able to use the messaging app.
Before the deadline does arrive, it is important to check whether the version of the software on your phone matches the requirement. Android and iOS users can check the same via accessing the mobile phone settings.
