One of the most requested app from the iPad users is WhatsApp. People have been requesting to want a WhatsApp for their iPad for a long time. In an recent interview the Head if WhatsApp Will Cathcart when asked a question about WhatsApp for iPad he said “We’d love to do it”.
“People have wanted an iPad app for a long time” during an interview with TheVerge at their parent office Meta. This request has been floating around for a long time and now we have got a response on that. Although we need to be careful as he just mentioned this as a possibility and not a commitment. There is more chance of this happening as of what WhatsApp was able to do.
Last year WhatsApp did release a feature that let’s WhatsApp support multi-device login. But that feature is still in beta phase and is an opt-in option. This feature will let you connect up to 4 devices to login your WhatsApp account and use it even if your phone is not connected to internet. This sounds cool and WhatsApp was able to achieve that without removing the end-to-end encryption feature.
After this enhancement WhatsApp for iPad might become a possibility in future as that sort of technology is now present with WhatsApp. There is a way to connect WhatsApp to your iPad but for that you need your phone also to stay online. But now even if the phone doesn’t have internet or if the phone turns off you can still get the messages in the linked devices. This was not a possibility before as the end-to-end encryption would not be able to sync devices.
