I think it depends how old your phone is as to whether it supports WhatsApp's new technology. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you’ve got a phone on that list then it’s a fair bet that plenty of other apps etc aren’t working well or at all either, isn’t it? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Likely yes but WhatsApp is probably more important to people than say Candy Crush etc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
