And it is that as it happens with all versions of the different operating systems, current applications and others, there comes a time when official support is no longer offered by the developer and this is what officially announces WhatsApp on its website.
During 2018 several devices will no longer be able to update the messaging application par excellence, among them are several devices of Apple with iOS 6 or earlier, in addition to several devices that use other OS such as: BlackBerry and Windows Phone.
In this case, the iPhone 3GS or earlier will no longer have official support from the developer, which means that they will not be updated but they will not stop working for that. This has to be clear from the beginning and it is not because they stop receiving updates that they stop working. The bad thing is that if a security or similar problem appears that could put the system at risk, in principle they will not receive any update, which leaves these devices that use WhatsApp more vulnerable.
The activation of WhatsApp in them, obviously, can no longer be carried out from 2018. On the other hand, users who have BlackBerry and Windows Phone, can also say goodbye to this support for the application. Devices with these OS versions will stop receiving updates. Support for users with older iPhones stays on the already veteran iPhone 4, a terminal that arrived in our country for all operators (previously they were exclusively for sale in Movistar) and was undoubtedly the one that opened the market in a more powerful way in our country.
