WhatsApp worked in a long floor design to support a wide range of iOS versions. Several iPhone models and iOS release users can enjoy services. This comprehensive approach has contributed to expanding access to the platform. However, in order to maintain the latest technical progress and to improve the user experience, the company is now planning to gradually remove some of the old -fashioned iOS support. With the last updates, the Watts app announced on May 5 that the old version of iOS would be canceled. The messaging app does not support iOS before 15.1, even if you want to access it via the old version of Test Flight. Before this change, the WatTS app has already blocked the Beta tester to install the latest version of the app on these devices. WhatsApp intends to use new iOS functions and technologies to improve user experience by increasing the minimal iOS requirements.
Before installing iOS WhatsApp Beta version 25.1.10.72, the user who has registered the iPhone in the Beta app must confirm that the device is performing iOS 15.1 or next. Since these devices cannot be updated to iOS 15, the beta tester ends with old iPhones such as the iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus and iPhone 5S. However, the user can continue to change the sustainable version of the program, which receives updates by May 1st. If you end support for iOS 12, iOS 13 and iOS 14, you can integrate new functions that are compatible with the latest iOS version. IOS 15.1 or then it is required for the App Store WhatsApp list, and iOS 12, which currently supports iOS 12, will soon require iOS 15.1.
Follow the following steps to install the latest version of Beta WhatsApp on your iPhone:
Open the configuration app on the iPhone
General> to switch to software update
If the update is available, tap the installation now
The update is ready and is iPhone iOS 15.1 out
Can you install the latest version of WhatsApp Beta on the device?
This change also applies to both the standard whats app and whatspaps, since both programs have the same principles and system requirements. If you are currently using the old version of iOS, we recommend updating your device and using the app or using a compatible iPhone that supports the new iOS version.
