The messaging app appears to have given older Apple phones an “extension”.
In recent days, a lot of information has been published on the mobiles on which WhatsApp will stop working in 2021 Officially, the application itself has reported that these devices with an operating system lower than iOS 9 they wouldn’t support the new version of WhatsApp. Taking this into account, iPhones prior to the iPhone 4S would no longer “fit”.
However, this week, a voice as authoritative as Wabetainfo, the most important media in the world in terms of WhatsaApp information. It was made quite clear: “WhatsApp will not stop working on older iPhones. This is fake news ”.
WhatsApp is not removing support for older iPhones. This is fake news. ????????♂️

A “second life” for former iPhone owners
The ruggedness and durability of iPhones has never been in doubt. In most cases they are changed for the old ones and not because they stop working, so they support their compatibility with WhatsApp is a relief for its users.
In 2019, WhatsApp stopped working on devices with iOS 8 or earlier and Android version 2.3.7 or earlier, so Everything indicated that 2020 was the year of the iOS 9 failure. But, if we let ourselves be carried away by what is brought by Wabetainfo, it will not be the case and those who have an older iPhone will be able to continue to breathe… for now.
