The WhatsApp app has been undergoing serious transformation and this will entail it not working on some old devices. Here we have the list of devices on which WhatsApp will no longer work in 2024.

The messaging app, WhatsApp, ceased to function on over 47 devices starting on December 31, 2022. WhatsApp periodically releases updates, and sometimes older devices are unable to keep up. As a result, the popular messaging app ceased to function on iPhones running iOS 10 and iOS 11 on October 24, 2022. This time around, only two iPhones will be affected, as well as a number of older Android smartphones.

Although most people have likely upgraded to newer smartphone models, there are still outdated devices in use today. Unfortunately, if your device is included in the list, WhatsApp will no longer be available after December 31, 2022.

To make it easier for users to locate their devices, we have alphabetically listed all 47 devices on the list.
