A big part of Wear OS 3 was getting more third-party developers on the platform, and WhatsApp is now testing an app for the Pixel Watch, Galaxy Watch 5, and other devices.
The app starts with a simple list of recent contacts with “Settings” (for your details and Security notifications) and “Open on phone” rounding out this main page.
After opening a conversation, you can scroll to see past messages, while you can reply by recording a voice message or opening the system keyboard. In group chats, scrolling to the end lets you see “People in this conversation,” as well as another “Open on phone.”
The setup process involves entering an eight-digit code from your watch on the phone app.
WhatsApp offers a circular complication that shows how many unread messages you have. There are also two tiles for “WhatsApp contacts” to jump to a person, while “WhatsApp voice message” lets you quickly start an audio recording. This is a pretty good embrace of first-party capabilities.
You can sign up for the WhatsApp beta here. Be sure that both your Android phone and watch are running version 2.23.10.10+ – there will be sign-in issues otherwise. If the app doesn’t appear in the on-watch Play Store, install it from the listing on your phone.
