Recently, WhatsApp announced its plans to introduce multi-device support to its platform. This significant update will eliminate the need for users to designate a primary device for logging into WhatsApp on another device.
In essence, tablets and iPads will soon have access to a dedicated WhatsApp application. This development was disclosed by WABetaInfo via a tweet, revealing that iPads and tablets could function as linked devices independently, without depending on a smartphone.
• Is WhatsApp for iPad a web app? No, it’s a native app!
• Will WhatsApp for iPad work independently? Yes.
• Is WhatsApp for iPad already available? No.
• WhatsApp beta for iPad? If you have WhatsApp beta for iOS, you will automatically have the iPad version in the future. https://t.co/aQYBBtW7Sb— WABetaInfo (@WABetaInfo) August 21, 2021
