Oh my gosh, can it really be? Is WhatsApp finally really available on the iPad? Looks like it is. From the latest “What’s new” section from the app store:

• WhatsApp is now officially available on iPad. Supports features such as Stage Manager, Split View and Slide Over. To get started, go to the App Store on your iPad. • You can now start voice chats in all groups to connect live over audio without ringing. Swipe up and hold in a group to get started. • You can now select and copy parts of a message. To get started, long press any message and select to highlight text.These features will roll out over the coming weeks. Thanks for using WhatsApp!
