WhatsApp to Drop Support for Old iPhones and Androids June 1

WhatsApp will stop working on some old phones starting June 1, 2025.

This is so WhatsApp can add new features, improve security, and work better.

If your phone is too old to handle the new updates, WhatsApp won’t work.

If your iPhone uses iOS 15.0 or earlier or your Android is version 5.0 or older, you will be affected.

If you have one of these phones, back up your chats.

Then you can upgrade your phone or switch to another messaging app.
