Support for older operating systems

The following operating systems are no longer supported:

  • Android versions older than 2.3.3
  • Windows Phone 8.0 and older
  • iPhone 3GS/iOS 6
  • Nokia Symbian S60
  • BlackBerry OS and BlackBerry 10

For the following operating systems, you can no longer create new accounts. However, you'll be able to continue using WhatsApp on:

  • Nokia S40 until December 31, 2018
  • Android versions 2.3.7 and older until February 1, 2020
  • iOS 7 and older until February 1, 2020

Note: Because we'll no longer actively develop for these operating systems, some features might stop functioning at any time.

If you currently use an older operating system, we recommend upgrading to a newer version, or to one of the following:

  • Android running OS 4.0+
  • iPhone running iOS 8+
  • Windows Phone 8.1+

Once you have one of these devices, simply install WhatsApp and verify your phone number on the new device. Keep in mind that WhatsApp can only be activated with one phone number on one device at a time.

There's currently no option to transfer your chat history between platforms. However, we provide the option to send your chat history attached to an email. Learn how to export your chat history on: Android | iPhone | Windows Phone | Nokia S40
