With the advent of Wear OS 3, the landscape of Google OS smartwatches has changed, with more developers now releasing developments for the platform. And according to the latest report, WhatsApp, the instant messaging giant, will soon launch the official Wear OS app that will allow users to interact directly from their smartwatches. Thanks to the official availability of the WhatsApp application for Wear OS, devices like the Galaxy Watch 4 or the Pixel Watch will allow users to access chats directly from their wrists. The WhatsApp for Wear OS app currently displays a simple list of recent contacts, settings menu, and “Open on phone” option in the trial version. When you open a chat, it is possible to scroll through the conversations and it is even possible to reply to messages using your voice. Scrolling through the groups to the bottom will show “People in this conversation” and another option “Open on phone.” A very simple and effective synchronization system To set up and use WhatsApp on your Wear OS device, you must enter the eight-digit code in the application that you have on your phone (it must be synchronized with the smartwatch). This makes the process very simple and fast, since it avoids options that are very complex to manage and, also, QR codes that sometimes fail more than is desirable. After doing this, WhatsApp will sync your chats from your phone to your Wear OS device, which will be protected end-to-end with encryption, ensuring excellent privacy. The WhatsApp application for Wear OS includes other options that are important: it is capable of showing unread messages and, in addition, it has two specific sections for “WhatsApp Contacts” and “WhatsApp Voice Message” (the latter allows you to start record your message quickly). What you must meet to use WhatsApp for Wear OS To get this application, you must register for the beta program, which you can do at this link. You need to make sure that the WhatsApp app on your Android phone and your smartwatch are running version 2.23.10.10 or higher. Otherwise, you will have problems registering. In summary, this novelty allows users of the messaging application to access their chats more easily and quickly from their smart watches, which represents a significant advance in the user experience for those who have a wearable that uses Wear OS . >
