An independent WhatsApp application for iPad and Android
You dreamed of being able to chat via your WhatsApp messaging on your tablet? Rejoice, it’s coming soon! In a tweet published on August 21, the blog WABetaInfo announced the imminent release ofa version of the WhatsApp application dedicated to the iPad as well as to Android tablets, which should work independently of your smartphone.
« WhatsApp is finally working on multi-device 2.0, and you can use iPad as a new linked device. Android tablets are also planned to support multi-device on WhatsApp for Android! It is under development and will be released in a future update. “. Thanks to the “multi-device” mode, the application can therefore be used on several devices at the same time, without having to connect to your smartphone beforehand.
No official launch date announced
WABetaInfo insists, however, that no launch date for this new tablet availability has yet been announced. For the time being, only a beta version of the new features of the WhatsApp application on computer is possible, on Windows as well as on Mac OS, allowing you to preview the new messaging features.
To download WhatsApp in beta on Windows PC or macOS, you just need to click on the download links. If you have the beta version of WhatsApp for iOS, you will automatically have the iPad version in the future, emphasizes the WABetaInfo blog.
