WhatsApp for iPad goes official

If you have been depending your iPad for work and have hoped for an official WhatsApp app that syncs your phone’s messages, the day is finally here as WhatsApp can now be officially downloaded on the iPad App Store, and most importantly, it is absolutely free of charge and offers native multi-window support that third party (and chargeable) WhatsApp Web apps don’t.

WhatsApp on iPad works similarly to the desktop version, which you will need to link your iPad as a companion device to your main phone, rather than having a separate account. The features are similar to the desktop version, including doing individual and group voice and video calls, sending files directly from your iPad, and with its native multi-window support, you can easily drag text and images from other app, such as a website on Safari, to be sent to your recipient directly.

WhatsApp on iPad will definitely make working on the iPad more enjoyable if you depend on it for responding to your friend’s and coworker’s text messages, it definitely took a while for Meta to deliver this and is better late than never.
