WhatsApp may soon release an app for iPad, after all.
WhatsApp CEO Will Cathcart lent some hopeful words to fans of the messaging platform during an interview withthis week, when he announced that the company is looking into creating a native iPad WhatsApp app.
The reason for this is that until now, the way that data was encrypted on the WhatsApp platform didn't allow for the company to safely sync it across multiple devices, while maintaining the same level of encryption. However, according to Will Cathcart, the underlying technology has been evolving, and WhatsApp has been hard at work to make this possible in the future.
“Our web and our desktop apps now have that. If I have multi-device on, I can turn my phone off or lose my network connection and still get messages on my desktop. That would be really important for a tablet app, to be able to use the app even if your phone isn’t on. So the underlying technology is there.”
