Jakarta – Meta on Wednesday launched WhatsApp for Google Wear OS Smartwatches, that was first teased at Google I/O conference. Now Wear OS users can start new conversations, reply to messages, and take calls from their wrist. 

Available on watches that run Wear OS 3, users will no longer need their phone with them to stay connected, and can respond to friends and family using their voice, emojis, quick replies or text.

“We look forward to bringing WhatsApp to even more devices in the future,” WhatsApp said. 

The users will also be able to respond with voice messages, emoji, regular text, and quick replies.

If they have an LTE-capable Wear OS 3 watch, they will even be able to respond to messages without the smartphone nearby.

According to reports, releasing the Wear OS app now builds momentum for Samsung ‘Galaxy Unpacked’ event next week, apart from making Wear OS more appealing to billions of WhatsApp active users.

Mark Zuckerberg had previously announced that the WhatsApp smartwatch app was available on Wear OS. Users can now start new conversations, reply to messages and receive calls – all from the wrist.
