Have to keep plugging in using my phone. I've paid to register it, and now I regret it. When I open the app, the chats won't load. I then have to force the app to close, open it, and then it wants me to log in again. So I have to get my iPhone out, unlink my iPad, link it again, and then I can use the app — until the next session, when I have to start the process all over again. Happens on both my iPad Pro and Mini. This was a waste.

No it can’t do Video, it’s WebApp…. Before giving a one star review, you should read the description… This is a WebApp version that is used specifically as a Messenger. There is not a way to route video to iPad because WhatsApp does not allow this. If you are mad about that, you should submit requests to Whatsapp. The developer managed to get this to work as close to WhatsApp as is legally viable, considering the restrictions WhatsApp puts on it. Enjoy this for what it is, but keep in mind it’s 30 bucks for lifetime No-Ads. I don’t mind paying that, but i have disposable income. Not everyone will want to do that. For me, this was more than worth it because WhatsApp obviously isn’t doing anything to help iPad users at this point. Cheers to the devs. Awesome app, works beautifully and syncs immediately with my phone. Love it.

Works very well, except for one thing. The app is great, works well. Except for the frequency of ads for free use. It pushes you to pay for it to be ad free, which makes it very good. However, it can deter people that don’t want to pay for it. The issue is that it doesn’t respect dark mode or system default theme. It’s always light mode, which is blinding at night. Also, as a feature request, the ability to schedule messages to be posted at a later day/time would be great

Please add.. I have recently started using this app and the only thing I dislike is that I do not receive notifications when a new message comes through. I have to open the app constantly to recheck and see if I get a message. It also takes a bit to load up everything again

Pure garbage. Using whatapp for years but got a new phone and the app does not transfer the conversations to my new phone so i installed this app and it transfers everything fine , however it is complete and utter garbage ..every 2 minutes an ad pops up and you have to click in the upper right corner to continue with my whatsapp . In addition to this highly intrusive and annoying type of ads the lower half of my screen is completely covered with an huge ad …complete garbage !

ADS EVERY 4 SECONDS. There is no way to use the app - I have been trying to write a message for 5 minutes, and every 4 seconds (literally) another ad of a cam girl pops up! I am a heterosexual woman who is really spiritual and not into media. This is really annoying and offensive, and the fact that it’s constant cam girl ads makes it clear that I don’t want to support this app for their bad taste / lack of ethical alignment. Deleting now. Bummed that What’s App doesn’t have an actual app for iPad… why??

It works, sort of. Basically a piece of junk, but it does let you chat via WhatsApp on (say) an iPad. Crashes when you load the camera, photo library comes up in negative (!) (I’m mean, really? I have never see any app mess THAT up before) although you can attach pre-existing photos to a chat. The ads are annoying and it takes forever to load. At this point it’s a toss up between deleting and only using when absolutely necessary

Works Somewhat. Update: Not worth the money. Hope the developer is happy with my contribution, but the app is simply not up to the task. Waste of my money. :-( Not sure I should have paid for this app. Of course, WhatsApp is lacking in support for multiple devices (something Signal handles well). This app simply takes the web interface and makes it accessible on a mobile device (with more “stuff” but really, one only cares about WhatsApp). Sadly, it has various problems. At times the interface goes berserk and shows somewhat split screen (this happens when pasting in e.g. an image or link). It also consistently crashes when activated. Finally, I get notifications about “news” which I’m definitely NOT interested in, but new messages don’t seem to appear when not in the foreground. In this case you definitely DON’T get what you pay for… :-(

This is not WhatsApp. Downloaded and paid for the lifetime removal of amazingly annoying full screen pop up invitations to download Chrome even though we already had it installed. The WhatsApp chat functionality worked well. All contacts and chat history synced with the iPad. The problem is the inability to make video calls using this app. My wife, her friends, and family all use WhatsApp as their group call platform. She was hoping to use her new iPad instead of her phone for the group video calls. She is not able to get 30 other people to leave WhatsApp. I do not understand why the iPad app functionality is not the same as on the iPhone. This app is not worth paying for.

Garbage. Second you launch the app, a pop up ad, close that and another one appears. Not more than 3 seconds later it asks me to rate the trash pop-up ad app i just installed, followed closely by another pop up ad. Once finally sorting through that i go to use the app to see that the only way it can be used on apple watch is with a $5 purchase, with the number of ads on this i would assume that they dont need any more money to support the app, however that doesnt seem to be the case. I dont mind an ad here or there, but please, for the love of god, have some app for your downloadable ad.

Disappointed. I normally do not leave negative reviews but I have to admit I was a bit disappointed. I downloaded this app because of the review, only to discover that ads block half of the screen which is really annoying, they can't even hide. Also, it says “2nd number” but it's a duo number which must be purchased, I have a personal and business line, so I was hoping I could have them together, I guess I misunderstood. Please consider these on your next update. I lliked that it downloaded quickly and doesn't take too much space compared to the original app and it linked fast to my phone.

Good app. To be honest this app is amazing it is exactly what I wanted, now I have WhatsApp on my iPad a great app. There is a problem with ads though they pop up and are very annoying sometimes but I don’t think that’s a hard thing to fix, so I love the app just hope the creators get rid of the ads.😇

Worked great at first but now doesn’t load. I don’t know if a bug or something but after about a month of using the app it dose t load the messages it loads everything else and I can click on everything, even close the ads but it never loads the green bar fully and shows my contacts/messages

Great Potential Overshadowed by Ads. Review: This app could have been a game-changer with its awesome features and user-friendly interface. However, the never-ending popup ads severely hamper the user experience. What’s more disappointing is that the paid version doesn’t seem to alleviate this issue. It’s disheartening to see such potential diminished by an overwhelming number of ads. A revision in the ad strategy could make this app a top contender in its category.”

Too many full screen ads & the bottom half of the screen is always ads… :(. If you are thinking about using the free version of this app like I was, this app is really hard to use. For the free version, pretty much the bottom half of the screen is an ads that it’s really hard to see chats. And every so many seconds, a full screen ads pops up and you have to wait for them to go away so you waste your time. The free version was really useless for me. A few minutes after I downloaded this app, I ended up deleting it.

Janky, unusable app. The app is downright unusable without paying for it. Ads popping up constantly and makes the app very difficult to navigate. I ended up paying for the app and I regret it. While the ads are no longer a problem I constantly get disconnected from my WhatsApp account and I have to reconnect (which doesn’t always work either). When the app does work the UI is very bad and ugly. I do not recommend using this.

Hi. It would be great if they updated it. I used it but I stopped using it with my daughter because it didn't save the messages, photos, voice messages and calls that she deleted from the application. things are removed from the original application, hopefully and they make that change soon.

Payment issues and not fully explained. I clicked on “get the app” and it automatically charged a payment. I didn’t agree to pay anything. I thought the app was free. This was misleading. Then I got a notification that said it is an unofficial app. I didn’t like that either, That should have been clearer… They shouldn’t use the what’s app logo to advertise, or at the very least make it clear that it is a third party app. I want my money back and then I will get rid of the app altogether.

Ads are extremely disruptive. Subscription tier too expensive.. UI is okay, I’d give it 3 or 4 stars if it wasn’t for the ads. I get that they make money of advertisements, but holy cow you cant use the app without an ad constantly blocking your entire screen till it times out. You could at the very least make it a banner and not bombard my eye sockets with this bullsh**. Also $9.99/month to subscribe and get rid of the ads? F that noise. That’s way too much for the little features you offer that are Built off frameworks that were made by others. Build a better app. Charge less.

Don’t get this. This app is the most horrible thing I’ve ever downloaded on my iPad. I tried getting onto it and then it tells you to add an additional app google which might be familiar but one for some people but what if I don’t want Google on my iPad then I go to delete the app and it will give me the option to delete it so it’s basically told me you bought me so now if you hate me you still gotta keep that is the most annoying type of cheapskate marketing you could ever do you’re scamming people out of buying your app and they can’t delete it, which takes up storage on people’s iPad because they could use it for other apps that really work don’t buy this.

TERRIBLE!. This app is so terrible, I downloaded this on an iPad to chat with my friends because they don’t have WhatsApp on iPads! So I downloaded this and they’re trying to get my card info and when it expires and codes + my address! This has nothing to do with WhatsApp and it won’t because it’s fonts and you have to pay to chat with people which on WhatsApp you don’t have to. This is a total scam I deleted this app immediately, don’t get this app!

Useful but somewhat strange…. I find this app very useful because I never carry a phone but always have my iPad nearby. There are lots of ads, but it is survivable. There is at least one phantom notification a day — I open the app and there are no new messages. From what other users are saying, it seems they’re just trying to tell me when there is “news” so it really is just a garbage notification every day. Still worth it to not have to carry a phone, ha ha.

Bad and a scam. OK I download it today and it just doesn’t download I keep clicking it to download keep waiting it doesn’t work I was gonna add my friend I don’t want to use my mother’s phone and it’s just not working it’s a scam I think it’s a scam I think everyone else is downloading it on their phones I think it’s a scam please fix it and if you don’t and I have and if I download it again and it doesn’t work I’m giving it zero stars I’m not a Karen but it’s not fair

Don’t In App Purchase!!!. I liked this app well enough to pay to have the ads removed and gain more features. Don’t do it! I no longer have ads at the bottom of the screen, BUT NOW I have a giant full screen ad that comes up when I launch the app. I wish I could show you. And it’s even turned the wrong way. I then have to hit a button that says go on to the app. This is so deceptive it makes me want to delete the app.

Not a good app tons of ads. I just got an iPad and regular WhatsApp doesn’t work so I downloaded this app. It is filled with huge ads that try to cover the messages and it crashed the second time I opened it up…you also can’t automatically forward messages here from your sharing center like you can with regular WhatsApp or iMessage. Anyways I’ll use it because it’s the best option.

Straightforward app, does what it says well.. It’s incredible that an app doing what it says gets 5 stars, but there are som many other WhatsApp apps that don’t work or require a subscription that I want to strongly endorse this one! It has a lot of adds unless you pay for the no-adds version (which I will probably do), but TINSTAAFL. You want something that works, the developers need to get paid somehow.

Horrible app. Very frustrating because i cant get on my whatsapp because all these things pop up to get this app to use my credit card and i dont want to give that info

Ads but good. There are ads but otherwise its great! It’s more updated, so we can do a lot more stuff. The last bad thing about it is that it cant load pics, but otherwise everything’s great! Buy this app, and all your dreams will even come true on iPads!

Junk. The unpaid version is completely unusable with ads popping up everywhere and you can’t get rid of them. You have to keep starting the app over and over to hope another ad doesn’t show up which you can’t remove. It’s like pulling the lever on a slot machine and hoping for the best. The paid version isn’t much better. You have to click on a chat 10 times for it to open up. The if you come back to use the app several times a day half the time it keeps telling you to sync with your phone again. It does this over and over. Are the rest of the reviews fake???? This app and company are horrible and the price I paid for the year to use this junk is a total rip-off!!!! At the time of ordering I couldn’t find another app to use WhatsApp on my IPad. Hopefully there is something better and this isn’t still the only option.

Suggest. Thank you .. I suggest adding a feature that helps send a message as broadcast to a large number of friends at the same time + and a feature that helps divide my number into groups, for example, work friends, parents, school friends .. because I want to send different messages to each group as broadcast

Bad overall user experience! Way too many invasive ads in the form of “news” that appear as messages. Just a bad experience all around. Not usable at all! Invasive adds are not adds that pop up in order to support the developer in a fair manner that you get to use the product and they are getting paid via the adds. Instead the adds are full screen, converting everything, and do not have away to dismiss them for a few seconds. Then the dismissal option varies and is usually hidden (white X on top of a picture with a white background etc.) so you really have to spend a long time watching and add that is likely not a product you are interested in or wanted to see for more then a friction of a second. And then in addition, half the time it’s not a real message that alerted you, but some other news message they inserted in there with another add in it that was designed to get you to open the app and watch and add even if you don’t have any new messages! Just a bad experience all around. Not usable at all!

Junk. As much as it seems to be the best option when you need to use WhatsApp on something else thant your phone, an iPad for example, my experience has been negative from the first moment to the last. First, when you start the app, half of the screen is covered with an advertisment, and every so many seconds you get one in full screen for seconds. So it doesn't take more than 5 minutes before you decide to pay the 10 dollars monthly subscription. Don't keep your hopes too high though, the subscription is not tied to your Apple/iCloud account, it is tied to your device. I have 2 iPads, I rotate between the 2 of them when the battery needs to be recharged. So on the second iPad I needed to pay too, which obviously I didn't. Then, the application doesn't trigger any notification when a new message comes in, even though I set the setting. The app won't get new messages if you don't have WhatsApp running on your phone. Wonderful, you buy the app to use WhatsApp on your iPad but you still need to use the phone for the app to work. A friend sent me little videos made with her iPhone, they open/play fine on the WhatsApp app on the phone but not in this app, so there, again, I ended up using WhatsApp on the phone. Obviously you don't see when the other person is typing either. And to top it all, the app constantly sends you notifications to sell you stuff. Overall, an overpriced app, a dishonest licensing model, and it doesn't even work right on top of it.

Ordering. Actually, I’m not little bit confused when you said duo unless you mean that you can order from two places at one time or does it mean that you can shop from me I didn’t try that yet actually

Crashes a lot. It crashes a lot, it doesn’t open properly: I have to kill the app several times a day in order to use it. It will take a few seconds to connect every time, it doesn’t feel like an app, more like something old .. Also, photos will open and then go too big when you click on them, which will just lock the photo on the whole screen, no way to close it and go back to chat/text. So App Kill again…

Wish It Worked For Me. WhatsApp has become the primary way we communicate in my business. Everyone has different types of phones these days so having an app like this is really helpful. Really wanted this one to work cause I like using my ipad for work related correspondence. Unfortunately, there are too many ads and it didn’t sync up every time. If they are able to fix all the constant ads and lagging issues, I’ll be back. Would be willing to pay a one-time fee for no ads.

What am I missing?!. Not sure how this app got so many great reviews but my experience so far has been very lackluster. The app is very glitchy. It takes a while for the app to restore itself to where you left off in previous conversations. I’m talking about sometime is it more than 30 seconds. also, I find myself having to double and triple click on icons in order for it to react (using it on my new iPad). What is even more annoying is that I pay the $20 in order to have the ads removed so that it would hopefully flow better. Which it did, but not to the degree it should after paying so much. The other major downside is that I cannot make video calls on it even though you can from WhatsApp on a mobile device. Can someone please explain that to me?!? In short, not sure how everyone is having such a great experience with this app… what am I missing?

My experience with the new numbers I have already. This. App has- so far in my past as when needed an app such as the WhatsApp completely satisfied my expatriation fully as normal thank u for allowing me to contribute my experience with u - have a wonderful day

Works Great but Ads are unbearable. If you are willing to offer a free version with ads, it’s fine. But having pop up ads every 5 seconds to force one to pay for the premium service is completely pointless. I will happily pay for an ad free version if I didn’t feel you are forcing me through my experience with the app. I will buy another app right now instead of yours.

This app is a real headache (DO not PAY) not worth the head of of unnecessary push notification. i thought hey okay pay for the lifetime of the app because i run a business and to be honest the ads where ridiculous. PLus I need to make sure I can connect with customers.. If im paying for the ad free version i surely don't want to receive notifications unless its and text from a client. Im receiving notifications throughout the day and its from their news portion we should defiantly be able to control whether we want this or not because i surely only want my messages

Can You please stop this. Something that I hate about this app is that every time I open it it shows an advertisement and I can’t even take it off. The normal WhatsApp doesn’t have this! Then why does this?

Ads make it useless.. 2/3 of the screen are ads and every time I open the app or a message there's a full screen ad I have to wait for the opportunity to close. I understand ad revenue is what keeps these devs in business but this is ridiculous. Adding insult to injury it doesn't even send notifications when I get a message. I'm baffled this is the top rated option for Whatsapp on ipad. Edit: just read the other reviews and it looks like they also just copy and paste a response every time. How many of these positive reviews are paid for?

You will have no control. My iPad locked up after I tapped on the icon for the first time. I don’t remember the exact wording, but what this app does not give you a prompt that for example, reads: “ share my information, “ or “ don’t share my information”. The prompt reads: ask the app not to share my information. I can not tell you how many times I’ve asked for some thing I didn’t get it on top of that my iPad locked up. I had to reboot to get rid of that prompt

Ads Are Relentless. Even during my attempt to purchase, I was distracted (actually the entire screen was hijacked by an ad) by ads which made it difficult to purchase. You people are shooting yourself in the foot with your ad campaign. Once I finanly was able to reach the purchase screen to “remove ads”, the price to rent, NOT PURCHASE, the app with a subscription was ridiculous. Really? Sorry…gotta go!. I’ll find an alternative like WhatsPad Chat. It works great, and it’s only $2.99 to BUY. One time payment and you own it. No ads!

Relentless Ads (among other things). If you use this app for free, be prepared to experience a barrage of non-stop ads that ruin the experience the moment you start using the app. And not just ads that take up a part of the screen, but also full-screen ads too. If you also want to get rid of the ads, then be prepared to pay $20 so you don’t have to pay a monthly subscription. There are features that are missing (like replying to specific texts) and dark mode. It’s actually quite baffling that this app has a 4.4 rating when it’s this tarnished by its flaws.

I pay 5 dollars. But you don’t allow me to used the app this is just bad business you’re stealing money from people that can’t even receive it anything in return I’m blocked from WhatsApp’s I have done anything for you to take my 5 dollars to recover my account because I have new phone number your not being fair with the customer service you took charge my account and then boom disappear like a thief!!

Bad app - super buggy, does not remember I paid for it. I purchased the add free version. It keeps not remembering that, and restore does not always work and then it loses it again. On top of that it is very buggy, distorts the screen, keeps reloading and crashes a lot. How can this app have a 4.5 rating in the app store? I use it in two different devices and on both of them it is buggy. Fix this app! Or give me my money back.

Scam company would not refund after issue. They advertise that you can put two numbers on the app which I have with WhatsApp and WhatsApp Business. Yet after you purchase the 30 to do this you can not add a second number you can only purchase a second number they give you. You can not add two of your own numbers. This is a scam because they would not refund after requested. Do not fall for the same scam.

Eh. I have seen much better. this app does have good qualities. it works. but barely! first of all, WhatsApp on the phone is so much more convenient. it has a clean look and it actually has features in it that I think are nice. the ads. beware of this app’s ads. it’s not some tiny little thing. I x out an ad. a new one pops up. u know, I bet that if these ads weren’t so big and so irritating I can’t even open the app without being utterly disgusted, it would have actual features, like seeing messages fully. u know, this app opens the ad in full randomly. a LOT. and then it asks u to pay. why should we have to pay just to be able to look at an app and not see utter disgust? I refuse to pay for something like that. and always, it takes 5 minutes just to open ur texts and look at a message! IT IS PLAIN WORTHLESS DO NOT BUY THIS APP. IT ISNT WORTH IT.

Yikes!. Types a HUGE message to my group about something important and the entire thing just did not even show up in the chat! Luckily, I was able to copy paste it into my notes app—but imagine if it had just deleted something that took half an hour to write! Frustrating. Not sure why it didn’t take but be careful it’s actually relaying your messages.

ADS ADS ADS. there are two things wrong with this app. The first one is the number of ads. Every time you click something, an add pops up. Not just like half screen ads, but taking up the full screen ads. If you don’t want to see ads, be ready to pay $20 or a monthly fee. The second one is that you need a phone for it. Yes, I understand WhatsApp is usually for phone, but there’s a reason you want it on your iPad! You don’t want to have to use your phone to log in every time! This really annoyed me since my phone was broken for a while, and I couldn’t text anyone on WhatsApp. I really do not recommend this app. How it has 4 stars- I’m not sure 😒 It’s a bad app and I would recommend not wasting your time on it like I did.

Private Chat. A very handy way to have a private chat to someone thank you

Crashed trying to upload photos. Don’t bother downloading this. Far far too many adverts you can’t really use the app. The app also crashes on my iPad when I’m trying to add photos to a message.

Great app. It works very well. Never had any issues used for over 3 years.

Bad service. There are so many ads that take over the screen that you constantly have to navigate around making using this ap very frustrating…also downloading photos to one’s device is complicated.

Working but cannot open the messages. Working bug cannot open the messages to view message

Adds are rediculous. Even after you download an advertised app, you still get those adds. Screen constantly encumbered. Prescription ad free costs are ridiculous for someone who mainly uses WhatsApp on their phone and this is just a secondary source.

Pretty ordinary. Shuts itself down each time you change to another app, then takes 10-30s to reload itself & chats when you return to it. I’m looking for another app for WhatsApp on iPad.

Apple Watch. I just want to add WhatsApp to my watch and there are a lot of pop up ads to get through, not a very straight forward process compared to other messaging apps that already appeared on initial setup.

GREAT APP!. This app helps me chat to my family in Israel! It’s also so fast and sending and receiving texts!

Malfunction. When I try to attach a photo or something like that it crashes all the time

Dark mode option gives a light background. Dark mode option gives a light background and selecting light mode gives the dark background. System default which for me should be dark mode, results in a light background. Your menu options are a little confused, lol..

The ads are appalling!!!. I’ve had this downloaded for less than 10 minutes and I’ve not been able to concentrate on what I’m trying to do because I’ve been bombarded with ads. It’s relentless. Literally an ad that takes over the entire screen every minute and another ad that is permanently visible and decides to provide a pop up constantly. It’s ridiculous

Too many ads. I don’t mind the odd ad popping in but the frequency is far too high. When they are too frequent I just close them. Less frequent I might look at some. So not doing any favours with the frequency.

Bad. Why is there chrome under the messages like! And why are there ads in a messaging app this is so bad DONT download it. It also continues to not load my chat in ?

App with Annoying Ads that cannot be closed. App with Annoying Ads that cannot be closed!!! Will uninstall immediately!!!

Pathetic unusable. If you have ads that cover the very thing you need to click on to start using the app and even if you click on them and they STILL don’t disappear then guess what! Craptacular waste of time

Won’t let u remove adds🤢. This app is pointless I sat here for over 20 mins to try and get it to work… Tbh it’s really nice that you cannot click the buttons you need to press because a add is covering it. Overall worst message app I’ve ever used

More of an ad witrh embedded app than the other way around. As soon as I opened this app I was assualted by continual advertising. Coupled with exorbitant fees ($50 if you elect for a one time payment), not worth it. I’ll stick with the web app and phone!

Won’t let you remove ads. This is pointless if you cannot get rid of ads.

Disappointing. Way too many ads, makes it unusable for me!

So hard to use. This really hasn’t been worth the effort. It’s clunky, and I regularly have to reconnect it to my WhatsApp account. It doesn’t seem to sync new messages properly either, and leaving it even for a second means a new pop up ad.

Terrible UI experience.. Bomboarded with ads as soon as I opened the app, everything lagging, touch not working properly. Better to just use whatsapp business for second number

Don’t install. Ad takes up half the screen and constantly pop up as a video you have to watch, terrible terrible - impossible to use, I deleted it immediately.

Not user friendly. The moment I download the app and open it, some ad appears and not able to close. It’s one of the worst experience I had on using app

A piece of adware but not much more. I found Duo Messenger for WhatsApp almost impossible to install as advertisements kept coming up in my iPhone, which is part of the process to set it up in your Apple Watch. Developers, this is rubbish. Sort it out.

Cool Story. RE previous review - I’m retry sure he just needed to talk to someone, what jailbreaking another phones & installing spyware has anything to do with messenger review I’ll never know, in fact I’ll claim that your hero fez is in fact you cheekily using this opportunity to plug up some business.

Useless after Subscription. Worked just fine before subscription. After subscription to remove ads, I could not open my WhatsApp chat. I can only see the list of chat but could not open them to see the messages.

The ads are too much, i had to delete. Love the idea, but couldn’t deal with all the ads. Had to delete the app and stick to my phone instead.

Frustrating App.. For whatever reason this app works for maybe an hour a day even a couple paired wth the same app on my I phone and then drops our by asking me to pair and when done drops out again. Finally deleted.

This software is dysfunctional rubbish. I had it for a week and deleted it. It was riddled with pop-ups and advertisements. The menu is an absolute joke. Half the time it didn’t work and no messages could be found even though they were present in my iPhone.

Adds. I can’t even start using the app because of the adds, I can’t configure my account because I’m interrupted all the time. How I will pay the paid version if I can’t even try?

Kind of annoying. The ad in the bottom is driving me crazy and I'm not spending $15 a month or $50 for forever just to remove it. Only benefit is that I can use whatsapp without my phone

Paid for no ads but still having ads. Not happy I paid for no ads but still getting ads..

Poor ads expensive in-app purchases. The page is 50% adds, difficult to navigate around, pop ups. Too expensive for add free version

DON’T Bother unless you wish to pay subscription to use it.. The advert is disgusting. It’s just sits intrudingly over half of your chatting screen. Nothing as crass and disturbing as a half unused screen. PLease stay away from this app. It’s appalling.

Utterly Terrible. Used for 3mins Before Deleting.. Biggest waste of time ever. Downloaded it and was literally attacked with ads. Couldn’t even navigate to find the ‘purchase full version’ option without being overloaded. Do yourself a favour and don’t bother with this app.

Apps are fine but overwhelming adds take over the screen too often. The App works well, but wow the Adds are ridiculous. Basically takes over the screen regularly. I couldn’t stand how often they popped up mid me messaging so had to delete the app.

Too many adds.. You would think if you want people to use your product you would make it user friendly. This app is full of advertising. Time wasting. Pushing software you already have or don’t want. Waste of time. Suffered it for a week then deleted it

Annoying, doesn’t work. Paid money for the Apple Watch feature and it does not work. Bombarded with ads every 5 seconds (I counted)

Fake WhatsApp’s not from Meta lots of ads. Fake WhatsApp’s not from Meta lots of ads popping up asking to upgrade block ads when the actual WhatsApp from meta Facebook doesn’t even request for such of these

Adds, Adds, adds + more Adds !. And a bit of adds in top ! Every move

WHATASH!T APP. How are you supposed to set-up when full page adverts just take over the screen and block any ability to do/read anything on the screen? After three failed attempts, I’ve now deleted before I even had a chance to set-up. Don’t bother downloading. Should have just read other reviews to realise this would be the case.

Doesn’t work at all- Waste of Time. I downloaded the app on my apple7 watch to see if it works. Followed the instructions to a T to link my devices, the app is not doing anything, it just keeps giving me the wheel of doom and then crashes. Tried this several times, ended up just deleting it. So annoyed, what a waste of time

Fake reviews It’s a terrible app THE ADS TAKE OVER. The adverts literally bombard the screen constantly- clearly the developers have no idea what they’re doing. They’ve ruined the app and force people to pay whereas the real WhatsApp is free. Greedy and out of touch.

Not worth a trial. Using the Free version, the ad banner placement blocks the ability to type ... so unless you're 100% intending to pay to unlock ad-free, don't even bother with the download.

Ads. Don’t get ads on the phone version. And the ads are there in the way most of the time

Good so far…. I might change this rating after considerable time, or not change this rating at all. I just downloaded this app, hopefully it exceeds my expectations.

Pathetic app. Whenever I open it there are bazillions of ads and when I’m trying to tap something, it try’s to let me download google chrome, I eventually got sick of it and downloaded google chrome but they still had the ad there! I don’t know what to do as it just said how to use WhatsApp on computer. I DON’T WANT IT ON COMPUTER I WANT IT ON MY DEVICE!!

So many pop up ads. This app is not worth to download. When I logged in, ads were on the screen and it didn’t allow me to type and when I tried to remove the pop up ads, the app didn’t allow me to remove the app unless if I downloaded their premium subscription therefore I deleted the app and I am still very disappointed for how it turned out not achieving my expectations.

On iPad, Not very functional and tells untruths about ad removal. So, an app with promise that doesn’t do the job. a) ad removal: I do have the ad block product, but it still delivers ads on startup. I can simply remove this by going to ‘restore purchase’ for the ad blocker, but I have to do so every. single. time. Which more or less defeats the purpose b) support unresponsive: I wrote to the email address claiming authorship of this product, but I never even got an acknowledgement c) not fully functional. Can’t obviously see how to import image to a message or access chat functionality whatsapp provides on phones. d) Loses login information and requires re-sign in sporadically for no apparent reason.

Ads ads ads. Ads ads ads and an obscenely expensive subscription to get rid of them

Can’t link on iPhone. The page that displays the code to link your app is cut off so you can’t see the full code. There’s NO way to link this app on iPhone.

Was good. No longer works with latest version of whatsapp

Ads. So many adds on WhatsApp Dual for iPad. Frustrating

full of bugs. worse app ever

Too many pop up ads. I’m only using the app to stay in touch with my daughter and I can’t stand the amount of pop ups. Also you make it difficult to get them off of the screen

QR code won’t show up. Paid 6.99 for this app so I can use WhatsApp on my Apple Watch 9 and it’s not working. Fix it

Feedback. Too many ads coming up up easy going to transfer from old phone

Super. Super

Horrible. This is such a horribly configured application. It’s impossible to get rid of this huge ad banner that takes 30% of the page. The chat window doesn’t always open when you click on a name to start a conversation. Non stop pop up advertisement. An overall experience that is horrible

Ads. It’s a good app but maybe removes the ads bc that’s really annoying

Too many adds. Yes you can open what app messages, however there are so many adds that it really interferes with the ability to type responses in the chat. Ended up deleting the app, very frustrating.

Ads!. Ad that covers 1/3 of the screen will not go away, telling me to download Chrome which I already have. Going to delete this annoying ap

FREE. DON’T download, there are too many advertisements.

Disappointing. Would give zero stars if available. Non stop ads on iPad. Hard to get them to close . Very annoying. Will be moving to another message system.

Scam. Does not work. Pretend to generate a code but does not show the whole code. App kept jumping, full of bugs and ads.

Trying to figure out how to change the language. How do I get an English? I don’t speak Spanish.

Camera not working with whatsapp. Hi Its been common problem with 15pro max that whatsapp is not supporting apple phone 15 pro max Direct camera is working perfect but when u use camera in whatsapp It gives blurry picture in close up Please release update to allign whatsapp with iphone 15 pro max nd pro only asl well

Won’t even launch. Can’t use the app at all because it won’t launch 💀💀💀💀💀💀

Invasive ad. Why put a permanent ad into the main screen

Avis d’amélioration. Il faut réduire les publicités

Duo WhatsApp. Je n’en veux pas et je ne sais pas comment débarrasser.

Trop de publicité. Trop trop trop de publicité

Bad app. Very annoying with multi advertising. Had to delete it 👎

Can’t link to WhatsApp, no support. I paid the in app purchase so it would work with my Apple Watch. Then tried to link it to WhatsApp. Scanning the QR code just times out and it says it couldn’t link. Trying to link by phone number doesn’t work because Duo doesn’t show all the digits of the code I need to enter in WhatsApp - the last is cut off from the screen. I tried contacting support and they didn’t get back to me.

Not supporting to Apple Watch series 9. Have tried so many times as per description but it didn’t work

Waste of money. Does not work with latest WhatsApp

Useless. The ads are relentless. The app works maybe half the time

Add Blocking space - what’s up not supported on iPad. Not a goodexperience

99999 ads. Complete trash app with like 99999 ads, no I don’t want to open another ad. Avoid this app like the plague.

Constant pop up ads that won’t go away. This is a truly annoying app. The ads pop up and cover the conversation. There’s no way to close them, and they are difficult to minimize. I understand that a “free” app comes with ads, but this is excessive. I’ll probably delete it.

WhatsApp for iPad. The ads are so obnoxious they completely interfere with the use of the app

Pop up ads are driving me crazy!. Please stop with the pop up ads. I don’t go into WhatsApp to then take time to navigated away from 1/3 of the screes being taken by some stupid ad to block ads.

ADS, so annoying. Annoying ads that take up nearly the whole screen

Only ads. It’s just for ads

Its a scam. Don’t download

Annoying app. Never have had so many pop ups on a app. Can not even use it, would not recommend, never had this before on an app.

Awful took my money. This app charged me and wouldn’t pair with my new watch and so many annoying ads give my money back

廣告超級多. 廣告超級多

Too many ads. What’s up with the ads taking up 1/3 of the screen. Not cool.

Too many ads. Too many ads

Too many adds. Thé adds take third of the screen and you can’t really see what you type, you d have to pay a subscription of 13$. A month to remove them. Don’t do it

Be careful this is not free what’s app. I downloaded thinking it was what’s app, should have known not to give CC info I was charged over $50 US. Trying to get it reversed.

Too many ads. I can’t use the app because of constant ad interruptions

Ads are too much hassle. I stopped using this on my tablet. Too many ads

Apple watch. This app is pathetic it just didn’t work on my apple watch i tried pairing with my iphone multiple times purchased 7.99 plan Did every possible thing to fix it but hust didn’t paired I want my money back now

Terrible. It doesn’t work , don’t not waste your time nor money .

Amazing app. What should you expect= WhatsApp web Is the app free?= yes, but if you want ads free, you get to pay. This app only help you to link your WhatsApp just like normal WhatsApp web for pc. Overall I give credit to the developers for such incredible job. It’s works perfectly well and the ads is not as annoying as I saw in the previous reviews. Download if U need WhatsApp web on your phone.

Adsterra is the most preferred ad network for those looking for an alternative to AdSense. Adsterra is the ideal choice for new sites with low daily traffic. In order to advertise on the site in Adsterra, like other ad networks, a certain traffic limit, domain age, etc. is required. There are no strict rules. Sign up!

Ridiculous amounts of ads. Listen buddy, if you make a cool app, let people fall in love with it. As soon as you open it, it hits you with this barrage of ads that take up the whole screen. This behavior really just makes you delete the app and look for something else.

Can be better!. I purchased the ad removal and still I see the Google ads invading my space! Also would be good to be able to save the chat. Where is that function? When these two will be updated I may change my rate.

It works about 10% of the time.. I would love to love this app as it would enable to me access WhatsApp much more frequently and easily; however, most of the time when I open it, I cannot connect to my account. Occasionally I will receive an invitation to connect again, but shortly after connecting, the app ceases to work again.

Unusable with the Ads. I don’t normally write a review, but this app is so bad I was compelled to warn against it from the moment I opened the app it constantly shows an add to install acrobat reader, which is already installed. The ad either takes up a third of the screen at the bottom or goes full screen so you have to dismiss it back to a third of the screen

Mr Lopez. It takes too long to download; other than that, it is great! Thank you and keep up with the great work!! I am a big fan!

Advertisements. I hate that the many times I have opened up. This app suddenly I have an advertisement I MUST click through. I understand having to advertise but there should be an option prior to having to click thru to using WhatsApp

Alright. Good app but too many ads. One Ad take up half of the screen. People might delete because of so many ads. 𝔸𝕕𝕧𝕚𝕔𝕖 : Decrees amount of ads or remove all ads.

Not good for photos. It works well for messaging if you don’t mind the adds popping up. But it has a problem in the iPad when I tried to save photos. It would blocks the dual chat for about a day every time that I saved a photo.

DONT FALL FOR IT. I tried downloading this app the second I launched it there were adds everywhere taking me to random screens on safari and the only way it lets you message people is bye dual messaging and since I don’t have a computer I just tried to read other ways but then I got blasted with adds again u can’t do anything without a full screen long add pops up every second DONT FALL FOR IT IM TELLING YOU

Hate app. Nothing but ads. Cant do anything. Cant even set up, don’t buy, ads ads ads ads. Crap. Nothing but ads. So many I couldn’t even set it up. Don’t buy

DOWN RIGHT HORRENDOUS. I downloaded this app so I could communicate with my mother because she has a Samsung and i have and Apple. Within the first minute of downloading this app, I was attacked with a bunch of advertisements. There were so many advertisements that it was actually kind of scary, and within the next five seconds it was asking me to write a review.

I think they put it on Apple Store to steal and scam customers off their data and subscription.. This app is so poor, it won’t even download after several times of trials and it keep wasting my data. Such a useless app, you guys should get this out of Apple Store, before it chase your customers away.

THIS APP IS GARBAGE. My phone screen broke and I am short on money right now to fix it so I decided to find an app I can be using for WhatsApp because everything I do is on WhatsApp First of all this app is FULL OF ADS, and if you pay for premium you still receive newsletters, which are basically ads and you have no option to turn it off Secondly, you cannot save new contacts which is really stupid And worst of all, you can’t even do the normal things on WhatsApp, you can’t add or watch people’s stories, you can’t send media bigger than 16mb which is crazy, you can’t download Voice notes longer than a minute and 30 seconds DO NOT DOWNLOAD, IT IS A WASTE OF TIME I WOULD GIVE THIS ZERO STARS IF I COULD

Is there a better App?. I am using this App from time to time but find it frustrating: - i need to link my phone again each time - down load times are very long - it regularly freezes. I wish there were a better App!!!

The lock feature doesn’t work!!!. Unable to end the subscriptions. Support Center unhelpful. Don’t bother with this app.

Administrative assistant. Watts app is having a service chat on now it’s a very secure service and I think it’s the best way for people like me and my best friend to connect and chat!

So Bad!!!!. This app is garbage I don’t recommend anyone downloading it because it is literally useless. When u first download it. It will flood you with ads every 2 seconds. They will make your pay to remove the ads and if you don’t pay then half your screen will be ads. Plus most of the time it doesn’t even work and the app is basically useless and takes up storage.

Overall a very good App, BUT. I really like Messenger Duo, except for the annoying ads that happen when it starts. I would pay to have those removed.

WhatsApp with advertisement?. I couldn’t install regular WhatsApp on my iPad, so I installed WhatsApp Duo after having WhatsApp on my iPhone and Macs for many years. When I opened it, my surprise was bigger when I discovered there are advertisements. I tried to get rid of them, but then, another surprise: you have to pay a subscription to do it. I’m wondering if this is a scam?

Thanks. Service is usually reliable but changing phone it’s been difficult to start app again

Conversation Not Opening. Hello Please I’m having difficulty in checking to read my conversations and I don’t know why and how to get it fix thanks

Don’t waste your time.. This app sounds like a good deal, right? However, there are incredibly intrusive ads, almost every 5 seconds it seems, full page adds that pop up every time you touch a button. Go to the settings to buy the Ad removal, and the price is higher than what’s listed in the App Store, and it’s a MONTHLY cost. Total bait and switch. I deleted it because it’s just not worth it.

Too many ads!. I just downloaded this app and find it unusable because of ads that cover half of the screen. They continually pop up - every few seconds - as soon as I click them off and tell GoogleI don’t want them - they’re back. So annoying. I can’t even check out the features of the app, because I can’t see the full screen!

Immediately spammed with ads, no thanks. OK this app is not user-friendly from the first moment you open it because there are ads that on top of ads on top of ads, it’s an absolute mess! i’m OK with advertising so long as it doesn’t make the product unusable. 😝

Dont buy it. It’s a waste of money. You pay now and then you have to pay again to remove the ads not worthy at all, i lost my money here

Ads are ridiculous. Way too many freaking ads, ads are way too long, cover the entire app for minutes, THEN HALF THE SCREEN THE ENTIRE TIME!!! If you’re going to run half-screen ads, why the need to block the application with ads at startup? Total junk app, foolish developers. App deleted this morning, I couldn’t take it anymore.

Addition. I just downloaded the program Does your app allow user to be online and nobody bothers just listen to music Thanks

Horrible app. Super buggy, and even if you pay to remove ads, and the app still spams you with notifications of “News” that are impossible to disable unless you suppress all notifications from the app entirely, which means you don’t get notified when someone actually messages you. I reached out to the support email and no response.

Cumbersome ADS!. I love the idea of using WHATTSAPP on my iPad, but this app is really frustrating unless you pay for the upgraded version. The ads take up 95% of the window with a small link button to WHATTSAPP that will often disappear within the window. You might have to open the app up to 10 times before you are successful in linking with WHATTSAPP. It’s a very frustrating experience.

Ads are annoying. There is an add every time you open the app, that you have to click through, then there is always an ad banner on the bottom of the screen.

Not worthed paying 1.99 per month. For an app just basically provides a browser shell to whatsapp web, it is really annoying to see that everyone try to charge monthly subscription to it. I know that you need to get some monetary income for your effort but come on, monthly fee forever??? It will probably better if you charge one time like 9.99 and I think I will be considering.

Ads prevent use - don’t waste your time. The advertisements in this episode obtrusive that you actually can’t use the app. I have an iPhone SE and you literally can’t even access the interface’s buttons because the ads cover them and frankly degrade the user experience to the point where it’s not even worth the time to download it.

It is good on my mom’s phone. It keeps logging out on my iPad and i get separation anxiety when I cant talk to my dad when I go somewhere and he is always home when my mom goes to work so im used to him being near me but every time I go somewhere far i get separation anxiety this app made me cry because I got logged out When my mom wasn't home.

Message not showing. I’m trying to check out the messages but when I click it doesn’t show the message. Why am I to do?

Ads. Overloading you with ads is a pretty sleazy way to force somebody to purchase an app when a app is good you want to buy when you have a FLOOD of ads you want to delete when I first heard about zoom I was a little skeptical but it was truly a good app I know pay a $100+ for it sure it had some ads and limits but based on how it performed I was compelled to buy just a FYI

TOO Many ads!. I install it because a friend sent some photos and I wanted to see them bigger on my iPad. But this thing is useless for that: the bottom half of the screen is taken up with ads for stuff I don't want. I understand they use ads to support their app, but taking up half the screen? Not nice.

Horrible. Let me start by saying that I have never written a review of anything in my life, and I’m 57 years old now. But this app is such a piece of crap that I feel compelled to inform everyone. It takes forever to load. And I’m constantly having to close it completely out and reopen it to get it to work. I only use it bc there is no alternative.

Obnoxious Ads. As soon as I opened the app for the first time I was bombarded by three different adds that take up the entire page. At least the other apps on the Store have the small banner ads only. But the biggest issue is that the app is completely unsuable in the iPad’s Slide Over mode for apps. You are not able to see the full application there and are not able to respond.

Now has become unreliable on iPad. I have tried a number of ways to try to make this work…but without success. I have gone from a 5-star to a 3-star to a 1-star rating because of the frequency of dropped messages that cannot be recovered and I must go over to my iPhone to find the lost messages. I was hoping for something better!

Ad Generator. Couldn’t even figure out what to do with it. Ads constantly kept popping up. Deleted it within minutes. How does this have such a high rating? All you get is an ad with the word “spectrum” and a gruff looking lady constantly interrupting you. I’ve never seen anything like this before. Hopefully never again!

Why can’t we just have WhatsApp on iPad??. I truly can’t believe how much screen space is filled with obnoxious adds on this app?! I get it, free app = adds, but come on! When 75% of the screen space is constantly adds, then full screen pop-ups that run for 5-10 seconds before I can get to any messages 😖😡 Can I pay $0.99 a month or $10 annually to get a clean screen, add-free version, please?

Great for Connecting Communities. I was able to get something I really needed by connecting to another community, therefore I can give back.

Messenger is Fine, but the pop ups are ridiculous. I would enjoy the app more if there were less pop ups. I paid to remove them and kind of disappointed that it had to be a monthly subscription instead of it being a permanent thing.

Payment to Remove Ads Didn’t Work. The app works very well. The ads were annoying so I paid to remove them only to have them persist. It works fine otherwise even with notifications. Because of the ads and that payment to remove them does not work I will delete the app and look elsewhere.

Really disappointing. I don’t understand why the WhatsApp version for ipad is so different than for my phone. It’s riddled with advertisements and when I click the close ‘x’, they just pop up bigger without an option to close them so I have to close the entire program just to see my messages. This is not a good version and I’m extremely disappointed.

Was OK… Now is Junk. When I first downloaded this app, it was ok…. In the last few updates, you cannot even figure out how to synch your WhatsApp on your phone with it. Every other click produces this “Scan QR” app which is worthless since the iPhone camera scans QR codes without the need for an additional app. Stay away from this one… I deleted it. Find another one.

Pure garbage. I paid for the yearly subscription, and was completely disappointed. I never use the app because its slow, buggy and keeps on disconnecting from my WhatsApp account. I have the latest iPad Pro 11 if that’s relevant to anyone. I hate to be so negative but it was truly a waste of time and money. Can’t wait for WhatsApp to come out with a native app for iPad.

Whatsapp issues. Don’t know what’s going on with this app I can’t even download it i don’t know if it’s my phone or the App Store however Iam not able to download WhatsApp anymore to my phone which is really weird seeing the fact that I was always able to download this app before to my phone.

Sending photos doesn’t work. Whenever I try to send an image from my iPad, the app crashes ( when using the camera function) or the colors get inverted for no apparent reason (when using to send as a regular picture function). I suggest fixing these bugs of a much needed and common feature.

Don’t bother. Compared to WhatsApp on the iPhone. This app is garbage you have to have your phone close by in order for this to work if that’s the case why not just use your phone I feel this app is just a joke. I’m.
