WhatsApp is one of the most popular messaging apps in the world. Meta has continuously improved the app and added new features to enhance its capabilities.

WhatsApp is compatible with a wide range of smartphones, including those running Android, iOS, and even some feature phones with alternative operating systems.



Despite efforts to maintain compatibility with many devices for as long as possible, some devices inevitably reach the end of their support.
