WhatsApp will stop working on these phones from July 1st

WhatsApp will stop working forever if you own one of these phones, from July 1, 2024.

Among the smartphone models affected by the farewell to WhatsApp, we find iPhone, LG, Samsung, Alcatel, and Xperia. As of today, they will be incompatible with the most used messaging applications in the world.

Technology advances day after day and applications undergo constant updates. However, this evolution also has a negative side, since older phones are no longer supported and become unusable over time.

WhatsApp, the app most loved by Italian users and beyond, is a good example of this. In recent months there have already been several phones on which WhatsApp has stopped working, and new smartphone models will be added to the list starting from July 1st.

WhatsApp will no longer work on these phones from July 1

Below, the complete list of phones that - due to the latest app update - will no longer be able to use WhatsApp starting from July 1st. Some of these had already been reported in recent months but the app continued to officials anyway. From next month, however, it is expected that the phones listed below will have to say goodbye to WhatsApp definitively:

Why WhatsApp stops working on these phones

The reason for the incompatibility of the phones just listed with WhatsApp is very simple. The latest update has resulted in increased technical and software requirements, and the above models do not support the features necessary for the app to function properly.

To continue using WhatsApp, you need to buy a new smartphone compatible with the latest update or you can opt to use WhatsApp Web from any browser (Chrome, Firefox, Opera, Edge, etc.) without having to download or install anything.
