Not ready for prime time

The app still has lots of challenges. It constantly disconnect from the watch, especially if you don’t use the watch for 2 or more days. The app doesn’t support archive chats and much less locked chats. This should be a free app until the developer can provide a good product that is worth paying for. I payed one time for it, won’t do it again unless the developer can provide app stability and offer the features I’m looking for.

They fixed it

The app worked great the first few weeks. Then I had an issue with reading messages. Wrote their help center, took them a few days and they fixed it. Works great again. This app is a must if you use WhatsApp on your iwatch.

Hi, this issue is fixed, can you please change your review if it's resolved?

I don’t recommend

It often disconnects from the WhatsApp and then you won’t receive any messages until you connect again. It also stops updating and receiving messages and to get that working again you must do the whole connecting process again.
It only works if you’re phone is relatively close to the watch. If you’re too far, it won’t work even if your watch has celular connection.

Best Watch App!

One of the best watch apps out there there’s not a lot to choose from but this is one of the best complete features. Let you do stuff that’s not in the original watch app. It’s a great addition to the watch if you wear it even remotely often.

Rather annoying

First of all, the app doesn’t work with my LTE enabled watch without a connection to the phone present, which kind of defies the purpose of the app to begin with. Secondly, it’s not running resident on the watch, so it doesn’t update messages in the background, and every time one has to find and open the app, wait for it to download all the message updates since the last use. And, thirdly, at least once a week, every week, I’m getting a notification on the phone regarding the app. Opening the notification (surprise!) every. single. time! it asks whether I like the app 🤦‍♂️🤷‍♂️. I say no, I leave a message, explaining why… and then, within a few day, new notification: “Do you like watchapp?” Great job, devs!

My I watch

It’s lovely. . I love it

Great Addition to Apple Watch Features

The app is a great addition to WhatsApp functionality on my watch. For the basic free functionality, it works really well. I haven’t tried the upgrade yet but it’s tempting.

Can’t use my Keyboard

I literally just paid my yearly subscription cause I wanted to have a keyboard like the one on my phone, It worked for almost a month and then my keyboard disappeared, tried to get a refund for my useless purchase and it didn't allowed me, I haven’t been able to make it work again

Ok

App is ok…when it works. I am constantly having to re-connect the app via my phone. If I don’t have my phone on me all the time, it just disconnects and I have to then go back through all the steps again to connect. This happens daily. Probably won’t be renewing my subscription tbh.
