The company added through its blog post that despite it was a tough decision for them to make, but still the right one in order to provide better service and better ways to keep in touch with your family, friends and loved ones using Whatsapp. Therefore if your phone falls within the stated range, you are advised to either upgrade to the newer version of Andriod, iPhone, Window or get a newer ones before the due date.

My advice to you, If you’re planning to buy a second-hand phone for whatsapp reason, Please kindly beware of the version to buy as to prevent you from buying unsupported Whatsapp phone.

Zuckerberg nd his oversabi. well I trust 9ja boys........I even hear say dem don do one new whatsapp

Na to go use my bbz10 download android, whatsapp no tyme.

The one affected is iOS 6 not iOS 7 so ur fone is not included

New marketing strategy to sell android brands. I think android and Zuckerberg must av a secret deal somewhere. By the way, I see telegram taking over.

Will it affect BlackBerry Z30! Cos I keep receiving massages that my phone won't support Whatsapp come next year.

I am observing

that will be the slow dying of whatsapp

whatsapp gained popularity through its versatility and compatibility with almost all device that to the extent of killing network provider's regular SMS because it supports almost every phone that has internet connection and it doesn't requires much data to flow.

this is a very bad move yeah i know that the world is moving but what about those that can't afford such devices so they'll be cut off from service.
a very very bad decision from mark IMO

its like the major target is on Nokia phones

Oh my.....
By the way, I see some people saying who cares up there; the truth is they actually care, just that they are negatively affected by the news and development.
Guys, please take heart, ehn, and there's still hope/time to switch to a more favorable phone/device. Funny enough, it doesn't even have to be an expensive one.
Left to me, I think WhatsApp rocks, and I wouldn't want to miss such a very useful communication medium for anything in the world, I'm sorry.

KellyFORMAT:
Na to go use my bbz10 download android, whatsapp no tyme.

Oga after 31Dec, even the android own no go work for bb10.

FOLAKE GIMME LOVE O


ALL THE BABES WEY THEIR NAME NA FOLAKE, NA UNA SEASON BE THIS OOO
