WhatsApp Now Offers an iPad Application
Berlin - WhatsApp has launched a dedicated app for the iPad, making coterminous use and group calls hassle-free. The application, available in the App Store, puts an end to the necessity of keeping a smartphone connected at all times for using WhatsApp on an iPad.
Until now, WhatsApp users on iPad have been limited to the web version, an inconvenience requiring the phone to remain online continually. With the new app, all familiar features, including video and voice calls for up to 32 people, screen sharing, and multi-device sync, have come to the iPad.
The iPad app offers new control elements, compatible with the Magic Keyboard and Apple Pencil for an optimized experience. Users can also benefit from the tablet's larger screen, even when the multitasking feature - which allows the simultaneous utilization of multiple apps - is activated.
In addition, the new WhatsApp app for iPad supports the iPadOS multitasking tools, such as Split View, Slide Over, and Stage Manager, enabling users to engage in WhatsApp conversations alongside other apps. The app also includes chat lock functionality for enhanced privacy and utilizes end-to-end encryption to maintain user privacy and security.
WhatsApp hints that this launch is only the beginning, with future improvements and new features to come based on user feedback. The updated app offers a more fluid experience tailored specifically for the iPadOS environment, making it a valuable tool for communication on iPadOS devices.
