WhatsApp finally released its app for the iPad after years of waiting. This long-awaited moment in the history of the app has been a considerable milestone for the messaging giant, bringing a productive and optimized experience finally to millions of iPad users around the world. So far, iPad users relied on workarounds such as WhatsApp Web and third-party solutions to access their chat. The new App allows WhatsApp users to enjoy even a more potent integrated experience tailored purely to the larger screen and multitasking features of the iPad. Use the iPad as It Should Be   Designed completely from scratch for flawless operation on iPadOS, the new WhatsApp iPad app features: Split View and Slide Over: Run WhatsApp beside different apps, making split multitasking easy. Magic Keyboard: Type messages like you would on a laptop. Apple Pencil: Draw on media or messages with ease. Stage Manager (iPadOS 16+): Coordinate multiple windows better. The application utilizes everything the iPad display has to offer, providing a layout that feels somewhat desktop-like, as users are used to, when using WhatsApp Web, but with native performance and many more iPadOS features. Key Features 1. Multi-Device Connectivity The iPad app attaches itself to the main WhatsApp account using the multi-device characteristics of WhatsApp. Henceforth, it operates solely on that link – your phone need not remain connected for the iPad app to work. 2. Voice and Video Calls Now, users can make group video calls and voice calls right from their iPads-it’s an exciting first time for tablet users. Up to 32 people can connect between themselves in a group call, taking advantage of the front or rear-facing cameras used during calls. 3. Share Your Screen One of the newer features is screen sharing, which works perfectly on the iPad. Especially useful for presentations, walkthroughs, or remote support via calls. 4. Complete Sync Chat and Media Once the iPad is successfully connected to your WhatsApp account, it will then sync all your messages, groups, and media files; everything is end-to-end encrypted, keeping it private and secure. 5. Alerts and Background Activity Alerts are received in real-time, even while the app is running in the background, much like those on your phone. Thus, it remains an acceptable device for work or casual use. Setting It Up Setting WhatsApp on your iPad is as easy as pie: 1. Download the App: Go to App Store, then search for and get WhatsApp Messenger. 2. Open the Application: A QR code will be generated. 3. Link Your Device: On your smartphone, go to WhatsApp > Settings > Linked Devices > Link a Device. Use the provided QR code on your iPad to complete the process. 4. Start Chatting: The app will synchronize your conversations and now you are all set! What Remains to Be Done? Though the application is indeed powerful, it still lacks a few high-tech feature: Independent Registration: Requirement of mobile number for activating WhatsApp is still applicable. App Support for iCloud Full Backup: The chat is tied to your phone only and not to the iPad. Management of Two SIMs: Currently, changing the profiles of the two phone numbers is unavailable. However, for what it’s worth, this-development is a gigantic leap from its predecessor and will definitely see improvement in the upcoming updates.   Conclusion WhatsApp’s arrival on the iPad is a good thing for casual and professional users alike, allowing for a smoother and more convenient native iPad experience, whether talking one-on-one, managing group chats, or jumping onto a video call. Specifically, it has been developed to suit speed, security, and multitasking, thus bringing to iPad users the WhatsApp experience they have thus long been waiting for.
