"WhatsApp will soon be accessible on Apple Watch in the form of a companion app, which means that users will soon get access to additional functionality beyond basic notifications. The Meta-owned instant messaging platform is allowing beta testers to access the app on their Apple Watch. iPhone users enrolled in the TestFlight programme can reportedly try out the new functionality after installing the latest beta release."
"The standalone WhatsApp app for Apple Watch allows users to read, reply to messages, media previews and react with emojis directly from their wrist. Designed as a companion to the iPhone, the app requires a device with watchOS 10 or newer. According to WABetaInfo, the integration with Apple Watch is fully automated. Users are not required to scan the QR code to access their messages on their watch."
WhatsApp is rolling out a companion app for Apple Watch that enables reading messages, replying, sending new messages, viewing media previews, and reacting with emojis directly from the wrist. The app is available to some iOS TestFlight beta users on version 25.32.10.71 and is expected to reach more devices in the coming weeks. The companion requires watchOS 10 or newer and pairs automatically with a paired iPhone without QR code scanning. Additional features under development include a profile cover photo option, a device storage management tool, and potential limits on messages sent in new chats.
