Garmin smartwatches finally get an official WhatsApp app
TL;DR Summary
Engadget reports that Meta has released an official WhatsApp app for select Garmin smartwatches via the Connect IQ Store, letting users read and reply to messages, send emojis, view chat history, and accept/decline calls — all with end-to-end encryption. Availability is model-specific (Forerunner, Venu, Vivoactive, and Fenix devices), and compatibility must be checked in Garmin Connect IQ Store; this follows a WhatsApp app launch on Apple Watch last year.
