Know which are the versions of the operating systems necessary to run WhatsApp; some iPhone models will not be supported by the app.
IPhone branded phones must have a minimum operating system of iOS 10 or they will no longer be supported by the favorite app of more than 2 billion users.
According to the official WhatsApp blog, the latest version of the application (version 2.21.50) requires iOS 10 as a minimum to work, so to use WhatsApp on your iPhone you need iOS 10 or a later version.
