With billions of daily active users worldwide, WhatsApp is the most popular messaging app. The messaging app works on the majority of devices on the market presently, but the platform occasionally becomes unusable on software versions that have become old or obsolete to the companies.
WhatsApp will stop working on several old smartphones from October 24. Before the set deadline kicks in and WhatsApp on your phone stops working, you must check to see if the software version on your phone meets the requirements set by the instant messaging app or not. Android and iOS users can check this by going into their phone's settings.
