The WhatApp developers have not released an App compatible with iPad - the App being currently limited to iPhone. Whether or not an App compatible with iPad will ever be released is known only to the third-party App Developer.


Whilst the App is not available for iPad - you should be able to access the service from your iPad using a web browser:

Safari for iPad can be used in two modes, Desktop and Mobile.


It’s easy to switch between modes if a website isn’t functioning correctly or requires a specific mode. From the desired web-page, touch the aA icon at the left of the Address Bar; this will reveal a menu. From the menu select Website Settings, then select (or deselect) Request Desktop Website, then tap Done. Now refresh the webpage.


The chosen setting will be saved for the selected website - and can be simply reversed if needed.


Many online services accessed from a browser will automatically terminate a connection to ensure security. If the WhatsApp service limits the session time, you will always be constrained by the imposed limit.
