Earlier this year,Whatsapp announced that they would no longer support
some phones like blackberry,nokia s40 and s60 series(Symbian phones),
android 2.1 and 2.2,some apple phones etc after december 2016 but it
seems they have decided to show a little mercy.
According to a recent update in Whatsapp FAQ section,it has been
extended to June 30, 2017.
The update reads thus:
"As announced in our blog, we will soon be ending support for certain devices.
On June
30, 2017, we will no
longer support the following platforms:
BlackBerry OS and BlackBerry 10
Nokia S40 Nokia Symbian
S60.
The following platforms
will no longer be supported at the beginning of 2017: Android 2.1 and
Android 2.2
Windows Phone 7
iPhone 3GS/iOS 6
These platforms don't offer the kind of capabilities we need to expand our app's
features in the future. If
you use one of these affected mobile devices,
we recommen upgrading to a newer
Android running OS
2.3+, a Windows Phone
8+, or an iPhone running iOS 7+ before the end of
2016 to continue using
WhatsApp.
