WhatsApp takes a giant step in Wear OS with its new independent application for smart watches

Capital surprise on WhatsApp. We just discovered that Meta has almost ready a version of WhatsApp for Wear OS, which we can use independently on our mobile. Until now with a smart watch with Wear OS we could interact with WhatsApp notifications, but little else.

Telegram gave up on its app for Wear OS and two years later, WhatsApp embarks on the path that will take the chat application to even more devices: our smartwatches with Wear OS.

WhatsApp on our wrists

The new multi-device mode of WhatsApp is giving a lot of itself. It is the technology by which we can use our same WhatsApp account on two mobiles at the same time, on tablets and soon also on our smartwatches with Wear OS.

We found out about the news from WaBetaInfo, which shows us a screenshot of what we will see on our mobiles after try to connect whatsapp on wear os to our same phone number. We will then see a confirmation window.

Enter the code

To use our WhatsApp account on the mobile we will need to confirm our intention filling in an eight-digit numerical code on mobile. Something new, because until now the registrations of new devices always worked with a QR code. The text in this window makes us think that the link with codes could also reach other versions such as WhatsApp Web.

(function() { window._JS_MODULES = window._JS_MODULES || {}; var headElement = document.getElementsByTagName(‘head’)[0]; if (_JS_MODULES.instagram) { var instagramScript = document.createElement(‘script’); instagramScript.src=”https://platform.instagram.com/en_US/embeds.js”; instagramScript.async = true; instagramScript.defer = true; headElement.appendChild(instagramScript); } })();
