WhatsApp is set to end support for iOS versions older than iOS 15.1 from May next year, removing the chat platform’s compatibility with several iPhone models in the process.
From May 5, 2025, WhatsApp will no longer be compatible with iPhone 5s, iPhone 6, and iPhone 6 Plus models. Users with those devices won’t be able to access the encrypted chat service after the specified date unless they upgrade their iPhone.
Users who intend to upgrade can back up their WhatsApp chats to iCloud, and restore their full chat and media history to a newer, supported device using using WhatsApp’s Chat Transfer feature. Instructions on how to do so are outlined in WhatsApp’s Help Center.
