Indian Users Impacted?
However, this list of smartphones which won’t be supporting Whatsapp in 2022 is targeted only for Brazil as of now, where there are more than 100 million users.
In India, there are 480 million users, and a lot of these smartphones are being used in India as well.. But there is no news about India as of now.
What Should You Do?
It’s advisable to keep updating your Whatsapp application, irrespective of the smartphone model or operating system, and check whether Whatsapp is still supporting them or not.
If your smartphone and/or operating system is old enough, then the new version of Whatsapp will not be updated on your device, and this is the strongest signal that your smartphone may stop running Whatsapp all-together in the coming days.
