Hi, I.T is not my thing so please excuse my ignorance! My elderly mum bought a Merlin brand tablet with Jellybean 4.2.2 operating system while travelling thru Dubai about five years ago and has never used it. She now has wifi in her new home so i thought i would try to add her to our familys group whatsapp chat. I have successfully created a google account for mum and have then tried to download whats app several times, and it says its installed but there is no whatsapp app on her tablet. Question: Is whatsapp compatible to her tablet with the 4.2.2 operating system? Also is there any upgrades i can apply to her tablet that would make it work? Thanking you all in advance!

Yes, you can install the latest version of WhatsApp Messenger, V2.20.90, on a device with Jellybean 4.2.2.
The minimum requirement is Android OS 4.0.3. (smug)

Download size < 0.15 MB. But also accurate enough, ad-free & free.

Thankyou James as i had almost given up on it, but it worked so mum now has access to whats app! I tried to see where you wanted me to give feedback/rating but not sure where you are wanting me to add it, but more than happy to do so. thanks again. :)
