Versionen und Voraussetzungen<\/h2>\n<p>Die generelle Grundvoraussetzung f\u00fcr die Nutzung von WhatsApp auf Google-Ger\u00e4ten liegt derzeit bei mindestens Android 6. Auf Apple-Ger\u00e4ten zieht das Unternehmen die Grenzen ebenfalls regelm\u00e4\u00dfig nach; so zeigt sich etwa, dass die <a href=\"https:\/\/netguide.io\/news\/de\/2026\/09\/18\/whatsapp-auf-dem-iphone-mindestanforderung-steigt-ende-november-auf-ios-15-5\/\">Mindestanforderung bei WhatsApp auf dem iPhone steigt<\/a>, wenn \u00e4ltere Systeme ausgemustert werden.<\/p>\n<p>Berichten des Fachportals WABetaInfo zufolge liegen bisher jedoch keine offiziellen Angaben dar\u00fcber vor, ab welchen konkreten Versionsnummern von Android und iOS die neu eingef\u00fchrte Sperre greift. WhatsApp passt die Liste der unterst\u00fctzten Systeme in regelm\u00e4\u00dfigen Abst\u00e4nden an und schlie\u00dft \u00e4ltere Softwaregenerationen sukzessive aus.<\/p>\n<h2>Was Nutzer jetzt tun sollten<\/h2>\n<p>Wer beim \u00d6ffnen der Anwendung mit einer entsprechenden Sperre konfrontiert wird, muss in den Einstellungen des Mobiltelefons nach ausstehenden Software-Aktualisierungen suchen. L\u00e4sst sich das Smartphone auf eine neuere Version aktualisieren, wird der Zugang nach dem Update wieder freigegeben. Sofern das Ger\u00e4t vom jeweiligen Hersteller keine System-Updates mehr erh\u00e4lt und die Mindestvoraussetzungen unterschreitet, l\u00e4sst sich die Anwendung auf diesem Endger\u00e4t k\u00fcnftig nicht mehr verwenden.<\/p>\n<p><em>Quellen: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.chip.de\/news\/whatsapp\/neue-sicherheitsmassnahme-whatsapp-zwingt-nutzer-alter-betriebssysteme-zum-update_a65d4e43-9191-4edb-816b-1801fb53867b.html\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Chip.de<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<div id=\"netgu-3988443749\" class=\"netgu-after-content netgu-entity-placement\"><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-6258556257245998\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-6258556257245998\" \ndata-ad-slot=\"4559785002\" \ndata-ad-format=\"auto\"><\/ins>\n<script> \n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); \n<\/script>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>WhatsApp verwehrt Nutzern mit veralteten Android- und iOS-Versionen den Zugriff auf den Messenger, bis ein System-Update eingespielt wird.
