WhatsApp will stop working on some iPhone models in ONE WEEK — is yours on the blocked phone list?

  • Meta has announced that beginning May 5, 2025, WhatsApp will no longer be compatible with certain older iPhone devices worldwide, including the iPhone 5s and the iPhone 6 series.
  • The decision follows Meta's ongoing efforts to enhance security and enable newer features by requiring iOS 15.1 or later, which older devices cannot install.
  • Along with affected iPhones, several older Android models like Samsung Galaxy S3 and HTC One X will lose compatibility as manufacturers have ceased updates for those devices.
  • WhatsApp stated that "The message is quiet clear: upgrade your iPhone," highlighting that users must update or upgrade to continue messaging securely.
  • This change will impact a small percentage of WhatsApp's 2.5 billion users and suggests a broader trend where apps phase out support for outdated devices to maintain safety.
