WhatsApp Is Finally Available on iPad

Featured Replies

The wait is over, people: WhatsApp is officially, finally, available on iPad.

WhatsApp started as an iPhone app way back in 2009. Seventeenyears later, the app is still available on iPhone, as well as Android, Mac, and PC. But one platform the app has never been available for is the iPad. Despite being the most popular mobile messaging app in the world—roughly a quarter of the global population uses it—Meta never cared to bring WhatsApp to the most popular tablet in the world.

That changes today. On Tuesday, May 27, Meta included an iPad app with the latest WhatsApp update (version 25.16.81). It comes just one day after the company teased the app on X: The official WhatsApp account reposted an X user who said there should be an iPad version of the app. WhatsApp didn't say anything other than posting the side-eye emoji, heavily implying the app was on its way.

This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.

From the App Store listing, it appears to be the usual WhatsApp experience you'd expect from, well, WhatsApp—only, optimized for the iPad's larger display. When viewing your chats, you can see all conversations in a column on the left, with the active chat featured prominently in a larger column on the right. Your statuses will take up the full screen, and video calls will let you fit many callers on one screen. (I imagine this will be a big improvement for people who frequently video call groups on the iPhone app.)

You can download WhatsApp for iPad here.

Instagram may be getting an iPad app too

WhatsApp isn't the only Meta app that needed an iPad version. Instagram infamously has remained iPad free for years, forcing users to download the iPhone version or rely on the web app to access Instagram on their tablets. Rumor has it, however, the company is working on a native iPad app for Instagram, too, though nothing is set in stone. It would be a big improvement for Instagram users who often browse on their iPads, but we'll have to wait and see if the company actually pulls the trigger.
