WhatsApp is, without a doubt, the leading instant messaging application. It is one of the busiest for Chileans to socialize, work and stay connected with family, and with each update, it implements greater security and more communication tools.
However, the result is that older cell phones have become outdated and, therefore, no longer compatible with the technology application.
In this case, on October 24 of this year, the developers released a new list of smartphones that will be left without the service, because they are not compatible with the new update.
