WhatsApp Icon for iOS 12 - How to Add and Use It

Are you tired of not being able to use WhatsApp on your iPad or iPod touch? Well, the good news is that you can still add a widget to Today View to access this popular messaging app. In this article, we will show you how to do it.

Since version 2.11.9 of WhatsApp, the application's description in the App Store states that iPods and iPads are not supported devices. This is because the developer has made changes to the code to prevent installation on these devices. However, with the latest versions of WhatsApp, there is a way to add a widget to Today View that allows you to access the app.

To do this, follow these steps:

1. Swipe left to right on the Home screen and tap on Edit from the end.

2. Tap on the green plus icon next to WhatsApp.

3. Tap on Done.

Once you have added the widget, you can use it to send messages and make voice calls with your friends and family who also use WhatsApp.

In addition to adding a widget to Today View, there is another important step that you need to take if you want to use WhatsApp on your iPad or iPod touch. Starting from version 2.11.9 of WhatsApp, the folder 'StoreKit' is essential for the app to work properly. This folder cannot be copied and contains a file called 'receipt'. If you do not have this folder, WhatsApp will not work on your device.

It's worth noting that despite these efforts, WhatsApp still does not work on iPads or iPods without jailbreak, even with the latest versions of the app. However, by following the steps above, you can at least add a widget to Today View and access some features of the app.

In conclusion, adding a WhatsApp icon for iOS 12 is possible, but it requires some extra effort and attention to detail. By following these steps, you can use this popular messaging app on your iPad or iPod touch, even if it's not officially supported by the developer.
