Meta, owner of Facebook, WhatsApp and Instagram, announced that starting Wednesday (31), the messaging app will stop working on many mobile phones that do not meet the minimum compatibility requirements. The company performs this “cleaning” periodically.

Depending on the platform, hardware and software change frequently, so they regularly review the operating systems they support and update them accordingly.

Like other technology companies, each year they identify the most outdated hardware and software and those with the fewest downtime users. These devices may also not have the latest security updates or functionality needed to run WhatsApp.

“To keep up with the latest technological developments, we regularly stop supporting older operating systems to allocate our resources to support the latest systems,” so “we will regularly update this page to ensure that the latest operating systems we support appear here,” WhatsApp.
