WhatsApp on the Apple Watch: What you need to know
Unfortunately, an official extension for the Apple Watch has not yet been released.
- However, you can reply to the push notifications with the so-called quick reply functions.
- The Quick Reply functions are standard responses such as “Hello”, “On my way”, “Can’t right now” or “What’s up?”.
- You can also respond to the message with emoticons or a voice message. You can also use your finger to write a message on the clock.
- This is the best way to shorten the waiting time for the final extension.
