JioPhone may run special version of WhatsApp: Report

Soon after the unveiling of JioPhone by the Reliance Industries' chairman Mukesh Amabani late last month, there have been reports about the phone not supporting the populat instant messaging app WhatsApp.



Though the company did not make an statement on this, a new report has claimed that Reliance Jio and WhatsApp are in early talks to create a version of the messaging service that will work on JioPhones.

According to the report in Factor Daily,  the two companies are planning to introduce a toned-down version of the app on the phone. A source close to Jio is said to have told Factor Daily that the talks are still on and there are some technical challenges. However, the company will come up with a new version of the app for JioPhone.
