WhatsApp for iPhone no longer supports old versions of iOS. In the new beta version of the app for iOS (version 25.2.10.72) via TestFlight, users must have iOS 15.1 or a newer version of the operating system. It was noted that support for old versions of iOS will be discontinued on May 5, 2025.
This means that users of the standard WhatsApp and WhatsApp Business versions who do not update their devices will no longer be able to send messages or make calls. To check your iOS version, you need to go to your smartphone settings and view device information.
If the iOS version is 15.1 or higher, everything will work without issues. However, if the version is lower, you need to update iOS or consider buying a new iPhone.
The restrictions will affect owners of iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus, iPhone 5s, and older models with iOS 14 and below.
