These are the cell phones that will be without WhatsApp from November

Several Android devices were left without access to the application for reasons of updates.

Like every month a list of cell phones will no longer have access to WhatsAppdue to the features they have at a technical level and the updates that the application requires to function safely and correctly.

This does not mean that users will lose their account, since it is associated with the registered phone number and what they must do is make a backup copy, to save the chats, so that when they have a device that allows them to use the Meta platform retrieve those conversations and files.

Although it may seem annoying to lose access to the application, these updates have been made to correct and avoid errors, as well as to maintain security and privacy in an app in which a lot of personal and work information is moved.
