WhatsApp Extends Expiration on BlackBerry Phones to June 2017

The initial date set by WhatsApp for the expiration
of its application support on certain phones like the
Blackberry OS at the end of December 2016 has
been shifted.
Vanguard reports that the new date for the expiration
of the usage of the app has now been moved to
June 2017 as the users of the phone now have more
time to enjoy the service on their mobile devices.

It was gathered that when this announcement was
made, a lot of people had started swapping their
phones and even some decided to sell them while
the sales of the phones dropped significantly in the
market.
Observers are now saying this new decision to
extend the expiry date of this application from the
BB OS phones may be as a result of the latest video
calling addition to WhatsApp announced by Mark
Zuckerberg, founder of popular social media site,
Facebook.
Individuals with the phones using the Operating
System now have the privilege of enjoying the
service until the middle of June, 2017.
