KaiOS supports WhatsApp in India, but not everywhere else yet. That’s probably the one application keeping me on a smartphone.

- Abishek_Muthian 7y agoThat's likely cause of exclusivity agreement between KaiOS and Jio. Besides, Reliance (the parent of Jio) is an investor in KaiOS, so is Google.
- robinparriath 7y agoI have a Nokia 8110 4G bought in India and it has Jio store , a carrier specific version Kai OS store. It has apps curated by Jio for the Indian market. We get Whatsapp, but lose a lot of other apps. My efforts of using the main KaiOS store have met a dead-end. It's still a nice phone. I just wish I didn't have a carrier specific version of the KaiOS store.
- Abishek_Muthian 7y agoWhat is the main difference you see between WhatsApp on KaiOS and that of android/iOS.
- postcynical 7y agoIt is supported now and installable via the Kaios AppStore. I got Whatsapp running on my nokia 8110 4G, after some fiddling and updating.
- projektfu 7y agoThanks, it didn't seem to be last time I checked. I should see how it works.
