WhatsApp is likely to launch its long-awaited iPad app soon. The app is expected to support Companion Mode and offer a tablet-optimised interface.

Your iPad will need to be running iOS 15.1 or later for the WhatsApp app to work, but considering we’re probably going to see the launch of iOS 19 and iPadOS 19 at WWDC 2025 in just a couple of weeks time, a decent number of iPads will support the app.

WhatsApp for iPad is finally here, as Meta has just launched the long-awaited tablet version of its popular messaging service.
