Don’t panic: WhatsApp is not dropping support for your Android and iOS smartphones in 2021
WHATSAPP fans have recently been warned that the chat app could stop working on their phone in 2021. However, there’s one thing Android and iOS users need to know about this alert.
In the past few months, there have been reports from a wide range of publications claiming that WhatsApp – the most popular chat app on the planet, with more than two billion users – will drop support for millions of devices from the beginning of 2021. This is something that has happened before, as WhatsApp has tried to balance bringing exciting new features to the vast majority of its users with supporting older platforms, like BlackBerry, to help a minority continue to use the service to keep in touch with friends and family.
