As a result, millions of users will now have to revise their options to keep making use of this service.

In total, 36 types of cellphones are not going to be able to run the Meta application anymore. In this sense, the fastest and easiest solution is to acquire a more modern cellphone to keep utilizing WhatsApp. The following are the affected devices in the list:

  • Samsung Galaxy Core
  • Samsung Galaxy Trend Lite
  • Samsung Galaxy Ace 2
