How to know if my mobile is compatible with WhatsApp?

The way to know if your mobile phone is compatible with WhatsApp is by consulting the frequently asked questions section of the application's website, which is updated periodically.

It is a section in which they are incorporating new features in order to

publicize if our phones will continue to be compatible with WhatsApp

so that we can get an approximate idea about how long we can enjoy this instant messaging application.

Likewise, from WhatsApp they warn that "

there is no way to transfer the chats history between different platforms

. However, we offer you the possibility of exporting your chats history to send it by email as an attachment".

Below we show you a complete list of mobiles in which

WhatsApp

will stop working.

IPhone models that WhatsApp won't work on

All iPhone models that use an operating system

iOS 8 or earlier

will run out of WhatsApp in a few days.

Android models that WhatsApp won't work on

As with the terminals manufactured by Apple,

WhatsApp will stop working on many Android terminals

.

Specifically,

all those terminals that have an Android operating system prior to version 4.0.3

What changes in WhatsApp justify the obsolescence of these terminals?

WhatsApp has new features in the pipeline that will be available soon.

Among them is the option to install an account on different devices, greater security in the encryption of messages and the option for the messages you send through WhatsApp to automatically self-destruct for as long as you have been able to configure.
