As per new reports from the WaBetaInfo, WhatsApp will soon drop support for iPhones running on older iOS 9.

Also, the Archives section has its UI revamped.
iPhones Losing Support to WhatsApp
WhatsApp is an essential app today on everyone’s phone. Facebook’s realization of its scope and buying it early didn’t disappoint it but was facing a lot of privacy issues regularly. This included the recent policy changes made to its terms of collecting data and sharing with Facebook.
This move has raged users and drove them to listen to the words of Elon Musk, and installing apps like Telegram and Signal. Though these apps had their best time early this year, WhatsApp still stands as the market leader in instant messengers, as it’s having over two billion users. Now, it’s reported that WhatsApp may soon drop support for devices running on iOS 9.
