WhatsApp Messenger has been updated with support for Apple CarPlay, reports iPhone-Ticker. After updating to version 2.18.20, the WhatsApp icon will appear on your CarPlay device. Strangely the release notes do not mention the new feature.

CarPlay integration lets users receive text messages while driving and listen to them with help from Siri. You can also dictate and send messages to your WhatsApp contacts.

WhatsApp Messenger is available as a free download from the App Store.

Trumpian is he? Wasn’t it no less than The Great Saurik who said that 80+% of all the users of Cydia download 3 or more apps solely intended for piracy? He also stated that virtually 100% of the “for pay” apps on Cydia get pirated by everybody. So who is guilty of using the alternative facts?

Agreed that we jailbreakers can have any app on the car's display with that amazing tweak, NGXPlay! WhatsApp is joining the game late lol. Pirating stuff is only for the kiddos, the ones of us who love having our iPhones customized in ways iOS can only dream to offer, don't need to. All the iOS 11 whistles and bells are innovating? We've been doing all that for years, far more in fact. Eager for my iPhone X to have a full, final jailbreak tool as my iPhone 6 does now :D

Jailbreak its not only for pirates. You can do amazing things with the hardware you bought, and Apple doesn’t want you to use. Customize. Security. CarPlay. Etc. Many things Apple implement in their iOS as new features, comes from jailbreak’s apps.

You should really mention, for the noobies who don't understand, that you are a pirate.

I'm not a pirate, far from it, but if you mean that I like to use my iPhone the way I want with no limits or boundaries, than yes, thank you for bringing it up.
