According to sorce, Before the final decision was taken, Facebook, the
parent company of WhatsApp, had stopped
new account creations on mobile Windows
platform
WhatsApp has said that its instant messaging
app will stop working on all phones running
Microsoft Windows OS from Tuesday,
December 31.
It should be noted that Facebook, the owner of
WhatsApp, stopped people from creating new
accounts on Windows phones earlier in the
year, Daily Mail reports.
The reason for doing so, according to the
company, was because it has stopped
developing updates for the platform, and as
such there would not be new updates or
features for the OS.
The app company was also reported to have
said that it is stopping support for devices
whose operating systems do not have the
capabilities that are needed to expand the
app’s features.
The decision to stop running on Microsoft
Windows phones was taken because such
gadgets can no longer support future updates.
In that view, it will also be stopping support for
older Apple and Android devices. That will
affect devices that run Android gadgets on
2.3.7 and older and iOS 8.
Apple said that only 7% of its devices
worldwide are running OS older than iOS 12, an
operating system that was released in 2018.
Another thing worthy of note is that WhatsApp
will only be supporting android devices on
4.0.3 and higher and iOS 9 upwards.
“This was a tough decision for us to make, but
the right one in order to give people better ways
to keep in touch with friends, family, and loved
ones,” the app company said.
