According to reports, KaiOS phones can no longer use WhatsApp. WhatsApp is no longer working on the cellphone running KaiOS 2.5.4, according to a Reddit user.

The customer reported that on his Nokia 6300 4G, WhatsApp (WhatsApp version: 2.2329.13, KaiOS version: 2.5.4) has ceased functioning. The problem continued even after the phone was reset and the app was reinstalled.
