Open the Apple Watch app on your iPhone.


Tap Notifications.


Tap Mirror iPhone Alerts From and scan down till you see WhatsApp and make sure it is turned on.


You are correct, there is no WhatsApp App for Apple Watch. That would be up to Facebook, owned by Meta to create. Apple doesn't own Meta. If you want to see a full fledged WhatsApp app for Apple Watch, contact Meta and let them know.
