WhatsApp stopped supporting the blackberry OS from July 1st, but my mom was able to still use it. From 18th July the app stopped working saying it is not supported anymore. As this is the main way she stays in touch I gave her another old phone which she is using happily. Have any of you been affected because WhatsApp can't be used on blackberries anymore?

I have not been affected as I don't use blackberry. I am sad to hear that your mom cannot use her phone but as it is you gave her another one. I am sure that this has caused a great deal of inconveniences fir many users.

Unfortunately we could not transfer her old messages to the new phone. But she's happy she can still communicate.
