Great app, but...
This app is really nice. It is o much easier when you have a real keyboard to use an app like this. It does have limitations, must connect to your iPhone, plus a few minor issues. The biggie for me is that when you want to respond to a particular chat, you have to touch the person name on list more than once. Multiple times i have touched particular chat, it;s highlights it but does NOT connect you to that chat. You have to touch it at least twice to actually be in that chat. I have had many embassing situations thinking that I;m in correct chat and have shared things not intended for that particular chat. PLEASE fix that!!!!!Show lessCpr_carpinter
Works great but won’t receive any notifications
This app works amazing with whatsapp web but unlike windows desktop app, it doesn’t get notifications for incoming messages when the app is not in use. Other than that I enjoyed using whatsapp on my ipad and writing messages with the keyboard. Sharing files became very easy. It was very beneficial for my workflow as I could switch apps really quick with shortcut keys and didn’t had to pick up my phone to use whatsapp every time I had to.Show lessAyushya Saraswat
Nice companion app with a few limitations
Was looking for an app that would allow me to view and reply to Whatsapp conversations. My sister, brother and I use the Whatsapp to send messages to one another because we live so far apart and to keep costs down from texting. Before downloading this app when using my iPad and a Whatsapp message came through I’d have to go find my iPhone to check them. Now I can check them without that nonsense. I would consider this app a COMPANION to the actual Whatsapp with some limitations. It doesn’t alert me to a new message, but then I usually hear my phone”ping” which notifies me of a new message. I haven’t figured out how, or if I evening can, attach a picture to a message via this app. With that said, it frees me from having to get my phone to check a new message and I can use the larger keyboard on my iPad instead of the tiny one on my phone.
So far I like the app. Just remember it is NOT an app developed by Whatsapp.Show lessN1Sp
Please add send to feature
Hi thanks for taking the time to make this application, as the developer for some reason doesn’t seem to accept that people want to use it in this form factor. I have had some of the lag issues experienced by others, including when selecting a contact it doesn’t really select and I send messages to the wrong person. I now know you need to double tap. The main request I have is to be able for the app to appear in the send to when in other applications, like can be done from the phone. Is there a way that can be done using the API that you are accesssingShow lessSummerDays22
Lag, lack of notifications and clunky full screen
Overall is a useful app if you are fully focus chatting. However the moment you minimize it you will lose track of the conversation since there is no notifications or badges for new messages. There is also some lag in between conversations or after minimizing and reopening the app. Lastly there is an annoying bar at the bottom of the screen that prevents you from just typing, I am unsure if there is where the adds are showing but for people that paid for the app it should not be a thing. Often enough you have to drag the screen a bit to be able to touch passed that and continue typing, quick workaround but annoying to use and it would easily drift users to other alternatives after some time.Show lessSomone from AZ
Social networking app with no notification
Good to finally have WhatsApp on iPad but wait there’s no notification for new messages so unless you want to keep checking the app frequently for updates this won’t help much! Also, refresh takes its own sweet time and at times just doesn’t happen in which case only option is to you have to keep quit the app and restart. Giving two stars cause at least I am able to get messages on iPad instead of logging to a browser each time.Show lessPS.IXR
How do I enable notifications on iPad?
Hello, great work on the app I just have one question is there a way for you to get notifications on iPad and number to appear on top left of the app icon? I have the setting enabled on the app and there seems to be no setting in the notifications section on the iPad settings itself.
I know this is like a mirror from the web application so does that mean that notifications cannot be sent since this is technically not an app?Show lessRafecito
Far from perfect but much better than nothing
I’m pretty sure this app is mostly just a web browser that is stuck on the “WhatsApp Web” web page, but even so it’s more convenient than using Safari.
But unlike the real app it doesn’t do notifications, which is a big drawback. It also has some UI issues: the fonts are really small and I have to tap twice on any conversation to load it.
But even with those problems, it is the closest you can get to a real WhatsApp experience on the iPad, at least until WhatsApp releases a “real” app - some day!Show lessSashazur
Experiences Lag for Conversations & Problems Viewing PDF Attachments
I have been using this app for about 2 months now - paid for the ad-free version. Having it on my iPad helps when I need to charge my phone at my desk but still require WhatsApp on the go during meetings. Overall, my experience has been decent but the reason(s) why my rating is capped at 3 at the month (I would have given 2.5 if I could) is:
(1) there is a lag in the updating of conversations where I have to turn back to the app for it to refresh and then for new conversations come in. The inability to have notifications really diminishes its usefulness and timeliness.
(2) when I try to open a PDF attachment, it tells me to use Chrome, Opera or Firefox to be able to use all of WhatsApp’s functions. Anyone else experience this issue? Is there a reason for this limitation or am I doing something wrong?Show lesscharliebrown390
DO YOU EVEN READ THE SUGGESTIONS????????
Ok first of all I have a friend who I want to text that doesn’t have an iPhone and I asked my friends for suggestions they recommended this. I got very excited I finally found a way to text my friend! But noooooo I can’t even get past a blank screen. I’ve tried waiting and waiting and waiting for it to load, refreshing the app, even deleting the app, and FYI NON OF THAT WORKED. I’m very mad that I can’t text my friend so I’m going to have to find a new app. BTW I’m almost positive that the replies at the bottom where you answer the questions are fake. And if I know better you’re not even going to put my review up IF NOT EVEN READ IT. Apps don’t care about what people have to say but they should care because people have suggestions and if u don’t fix them no one is going to use your app. IM NOT GIVING U ANY STARS BECAUSE I CANT TEXT MY FRIEND WHO BTW I ONLY SEE THEM ONE HOUR A DAY SUNDAY-THURSDAY. i find this very upsetting I HOPE YOU READ THIS AND FIGURE OUT THE PROBLEM IFFF YOU READ THIS. AND IF ANYONE ELSE READS THIS DONT GET THE FREAKN APP ITS AUFUL.Show lessccccaaaattttssssrrrruuulllleee
