This time it is again rumors who bring WhatsApp to the fore, reporting on a possible and future version for tabletsSomething that many users have been waiting for a long time and that could come true in not too long.
This is how the German media outlet Bild has made it clear, stating that sources close to WhatsApp They would be testing the idea of making this already more than requested version for tablets a reality. And there are many users who have been asking for and taking advantage of unofficial applications to be able to have conversations also through the tablets , with its larger screens and the convenience of using them at home, while enjoying other content. Something that could be in the line of work of those responsible for WhatsApp but that is far from being confirmed. Even more considering that to use WhatsApp it is necessary to associate the terminal and account to the phone numberof the user. Something that would force certain technical measures to be taken and that keeps this issue from being a close reality.However, these sources bring with them other rumors.
And the fact is that Bild also includes other more interesting functions than WhatsAppwould be preparing for the following versions of the application Issues that would be just around the corner and among which is the calls via Internet or VoIP. A function confirmed by those responsible for WhatsApp since February of this year and that they assured It would arrive before the summer.

Although they seem logical and attractive news for this application, this information must be taken with a grain of s alt. And it is that some of these qualities seem unlikely options for an application as conservative as WhatsApp , which has always rewarded the quality of service above the extra options. Of course, now it has something to do with Facebook, who after buying the messaging service claims keep it running independently, although it could well be influencing the development of the application. Something that only time will tell.
