I’m looking to switch to a flip phone but at this time I can’t get rid of WhatsApp. Does anyone have a suggestion of a flip phone I can get?

When you find such a phone please let me know. I've been looking without success.

It's a smartphone that can be folded in half. You can't see that it's a flip phone when in use.
OP, only smartphones can have whatsapp afaik.

There's a cell phone store located in Boro Park and Monsey that customizes kosher smart phones with whatsapp as a choice. I cannot remember the name.

Whats the point of this then? To look more frum since youre walking around with a flip phone?
My iphone has no whatsapp email browser... but its still considered a smart phone bc its an iphone.
just trying to understand since my daughters school spoke about this and it doesnt make sense to have a flip phone with all these apps

I just ordered the cat s22 phone because I want specifically this as well. As far as I can tell, it’s the only “smart” flip phone and it’s not being manufactured anymore

The point of this, for me, is to not keep looking at my yetzer hara. I’ve had an iPhone for 12 years. I’m heavily addicted to it. Every filter I’ve put on, I’ve gotten fed up with quickly and taken it off. I want a fresh start with a phone that doesn’t look like my temptation, even though I’m not ready to give up WhatsApp, email, etc.

what about getting a flip phone, and using a tablet for whatsapp? that's what I do. This way, I can still use the whatsapp group that I "need"- but I am not connected to it all the time (I tell people that if anything is time senstive, they should contact me via text, not whatsapp).

I have the Cat phone, and no complaints so far.
It's rugged and very durable, has smartphone capabilities yet still awkward to navigate the keypad, making it less tempting than a smartphone, which is a win for me.

You can still find it, although I believe it is discontinued.

What plan do you have on this phone? Will it work with all carriers?

The one I got is a T-Mobile phone and we have a T-Mobile SIM. Our carrier is TING which is a reseller for other carriers like Verizon and T-Mobile. So far we are very happy with it. And since it works like a regular Android phone it is easy to remove apps and restrict apps and phone time usage which is not possible on a regular flip phone with built-in apps like Facebook or YouTube...
