WhatsApp to continue supporting older Android versions till 2020
Just yesterday, we
told you that WhatsApp's support for BlackBerry platform has been extended till
the end of this year. Now, it has come to light that the Facebook-owned
company's website has been updated to reflect that the app will continue
supporting older Android versions till 2020.
If you recall, back in February last year,
WhatsApp said they'll stop supporting Android 2.1 and Android 2.2 (and some
other, non-Android platforms) by the end of 2016. But a quick look at the same
webpage now reveals users will be able to use the service on "Android
versions 2.3.7 and older" till February 1, 2020.
Keep in mind, however, that you may not be
able to enjoy all latest and greatest WhatsApp features as the company says it
longer actively develops for these platforms.
