WhatsApp is updated frequently. The point is that with each update, apart from security, there are also some new tools for the user that some older operating systems cannot afford.
There are times when the app may run into problems. Therefore, the company regularly warns on which operating systems this service will stop or partially operate.
So, WhatsApp as I recall the telegraph, warned that, as of February 1, it would not be possible to create an account or verify existing accounts on Android 2.3.7 or earlier, as well as on iPhone with iOS 8 or older than them.
How to Find Out What Operating System Your Phone Has
In the case of Android, you should go to Settings / System / About Phone / and look for the information where it says "Android version".
In the case of iOS, you need to click Settings / General / Information to get this data.
As of December 31, 2019, WhatsApp stopped working on devices running the Windows Phone and Windows Mobile operating systems, after the company announced this six months ago. "Because we are no longer developing the application for these operating systems, some of the functions may stop working at any time," they explained in due course. It should be noted that the windows mobile operating system has only 0.15% market share, while Android leads the segment with 75%, followed by iOS, with 22%.
