JioPhone Devices Will Finally Get YouTube App, But No Sign Of WhatsApp Yet

Launched last year, the 4G VoLTE-enabled JioPhone quickly soared upwards the popularity charts, becoming the best-selling feature-phone model in the country last year, and has continued to dominate the sales charts this twelvemonth every bit well. The company has since launched the JioPhone 2, which went on auction for the outset fourth dimension before this month.

The fact that Reliance promised the availability of some of the near-used apps, such as Facebook, WhatsApp and YouTube on the device, no incertitude contributed to its runaway success.

Withal, while Facebook has since been made available on the Jio Store, users haven't been so lucky with the other two. While WhatsApp and YouTube were both expected to hit the JioPhone this week itself, a report on The Quint now suggest that it might still exist a while before the former is available on the platform.

According to reports, a dedicated YouTube app for JioPhone is already available on the JioStore, and can exist downloaded on all JioPhone and JioPhone 2 units later a system update that will be rolled out in the coming days.

Withal, much to the chagrin of JioPhone users, WhatsApp continues to remain absent from the JioStore almost a twelvemonth after the launch of the first-gen device. What many users are finding even more than disconcerting is that the visitor is not even giving any ETA nearly its availability merely all the same.

JioPhone was easily the acknowledged feature phone in the land concluding year. It is powered past KaiOS – a fork of the at present-defunct FirefoxOS – and comes pre-loaded with quite a few Jio apps, including, simply not limited to, JioTV, JioMusic, JioCinema, HelloJio, JioGames, JioTv, JioShare etc. It also got support for Google Maps recently.
