"We will periodically review which operating systems are supported and which are not. So, please update your device promptly," WhatsApp said in an official statement on Wednesday.
However, don't worry about not being able to use WhatsApp or being afraid of being late to switch to a newer device, as WhatsApp will provide notifications before discontinuing support for a device.
"Before we stop support for the operating system you are using, you will be notified on WhatsApp and reminded several times to upgrade the operating system," WhatsApp remarked.
However, it's not just iPhones, Samsung, Huawei, and Xiaomi, but several other phones will also no longer be supported by WhatsApp.
