What's Up With Old iPhones?

WhatsApp is cutting support for iPhones unable to run iOS 15.1 starting May 5. This affects models like iPhone 5s, 6, and 6 Plus. These obsolete devices won't be able to receive or send messages or use backups on WhatsApp. Older hardware lags behind evolving tech, hence Meta's decision. If you're using a decade-old iPhone, consider upgrading to newer models like iPhone 8 or X to stay connected. This shift impacts only a fraction of WhatsApp's 2.5 billion users, but it signals progress over nostalgia.
