This means, in case your smartphone fails to make minimum cut for support, you’ll longer be able to send and/or receive messs through WhatsApp. Support starts ending for many phones as soon as December 31, 2019. 

App incompatibility isn’t new or surprising. Developers need to change with times, updating ir apps with new and more relevant features plus making ses apps more secure and private. A lot many of se new features and updates may t work on older software, which is why re are incompatibility issues. Users may prolong inevitable by t updating ir apps to newer versions, but that’s just a workaround and never visable on part of developers.  

Devices losing support for WhatsApp is a big deal though simply because way too many people are dependent on it for ir instant messaging needs – especially in India, which is WhatsApp’s biggest market. refore, it’s imperative to be aware if your device will support WhatsApp (or t) in days to come. In case it is t, you’ll have to probably buy a new device with software that would be compatible with service.
