WhatsApp overview

WhatsApp is the desktop client for WhatsApp Messenger, a cross-platform mobile messaging app which allows you to exchange messages without having to pay for SMS. WhatsApp Messenger is available for iPhone, BlackBerry, Android, Windows Phone, and Nokia and yes, those phones can all message each other! Because WhatsApp Messenger uses the same internet data plan that you use for email and web browsing, there is no cost to message and stay in touch with your friends. In addition to basic messaging WhatsApp users can create groups, send each other unlimited images, video and audio media messages.

Absolute cretins make this! AN updater that doesn't check compatability first, updates then complains and crwashes! Poorest example of software in modern history. Thanks guys! I suffer with an older Macbook anyway, and now you've disenfranchised me from my several groups I manage and expect to be found. I do not use my iPhone as a computer, hence my problem you have caused.

The only interesting update would be to make the application available without this pandemic — the smartphone. The only problem is that the developer DOESN'T WANT to, who knows why ?

Is it possible to use this desktop version WITHOUT being connected to WhatsApp on an iPhone, which I do NOT have? OR Is it possible to download an older version that is compatible with an iPod Touch (2019-iOS 15.7.5)

How can I find and download an older version of WhatsApp that is compatible with my 2019 iPod Touch? OR a version that functions on my desktop iMac WITHOUT the iOS version?

It is true that nowadays, almost everyone uses a smartphone, even infants. But those who do not have a smartphone consider the fact that there is no version for Mac as discrimination. The developer has been turning a deaf ear for years, to release a version for Mac, so that WhatsApp users are not dependent on a smartphone. Why ? Maybe this is a commercial explanation...
