VolJr, 04 Jun 2023+1 from IndiaHello, when will it be possible in Germany to pair an iphone as a companion device? I have installed version 23.12.71 and it does not work. How long will it take until the update is completely distributed?

    The real question is when we get it to work, does iCloud backup work if iPhone is a secondary device for WhatsApp?

          I am on version 23.10.77 in Germany... and the option still doesn't appear although in the release logs it clearly states that this option should be available.
          Anyone facing similar issue in Germany?
          I dont understand why it is added in teh release logs if its not available

                    For the first time I saw a company prioritizing their app update for Android version over the iOS version.

                              This is great!

                              Now, how about for an iPad? Will this companion feature work on an iPad? So far, you cannot run WhatsApp on an iPad and I don't understand why...
