Cannot see Whatsapp in the App Store using my iPad

Can anyone shed any light on this?
When I search for Whatsapp on my iPhone I get the expected result I.e. Whatsapp Messenger appears in the search results list and is the first app shown.
The iPad however, can't even find it, despite selecting the iPhone Apps tab
I'd insert the screenshot but you can't from an iPad!

You can install iPhone apps if they are compatible with the iPad, but that app's requirements from its description page say :
Requirements: Compatible with iPhone. Requires iOS 4.3 or later. This app is optimized for iPhone 5.
I assume that it needs full phone capability that only the iPhone has.

  • I get update notifications on my iPad but cannot see them in the App Store...please help

    When I click on the App Store...there are no updates available.  When I get out of the App Store.  The notifications are still there.

    There are a number of other threads from people reporting the same problem - it looks like there is a problem at Apple's end whih they need to fix.
    Some posts are suggesting that you if you go into the Purchased tab in the App Store app you might be able to update the apps from there, though you will need to scroll through the list to find those with updates and individually update them.

  • HT1338 How can I upgrade to Lion?  My iMac cannot support Mountain Lion but I do not see Lion in the app store anymore.

    I want to upgrade my 2006imac with 3GB ram but mountain lion requires 4gb. Can I purchase mountain lion in the app store and it will install lion or will it just charge me $20 for an OS I can't use?

    A 2006 iMac cannot run Mountain Lion at all. Mountain Lion only requires 2 GB of RAM, but your model has a video controller which doesn't support features required by Mountain Lion, so Mountain Lion does not support your model. The earliest iMac which can run Lion is the mid 2007 model (aluminium body). A full list of supported models is available here.
    If you attempt to buy Mountain Lion in the App Store using your 2006 iMac, the sale will not proceed and you will get an error message saying you cannot purchase Mountain Lion because it is not compatible with your computer. You will not be charged.
    If you are currently running Snow Leopard and want to upgrade to Lion, but didn't already purchase Lion (e.g. for use on another computer), it is apparently possible to place a special order for Lion via a telephone call to Apple Customer Support. (I say "apparently" because there have been reports that Apple told some people this was the correct solution, but early attempts to place an order were refused with Apple Support claiming they weren't selling Lion at all. I think this was a temporary situation and it should be resolved by now.) There are links to support telephone numbers here.
    Apple will charge you the standard retail price for Lion (e.g. US$29.99 in the US) and supply you with a "redeem code" for the App Store. That is entered by going to the Featured category in the toolbar, and clicking Redeem under the Quick Links heading on the right side. Once your code is redeemed, Lion will be added to the list of purchases for your Apple ID, and you can download and install it.
    If you had already bought Lion for use on another computer, you can re-download it from the Purchases list in App Store, but there might be a couple of catches:
    1. Some people have found that Lion was added to their list of hidden purchases. You need to unhide it first. Do this by going to your Account page (under Quick Links, or "View My Account" under the Store menu in the menu bar). If you have hidden purchases, there will be a "View Hidden Purchases" link, and from there you can unhide Lion.
    2. If you are running Lion and want to redownload the installer on that computer, you may need to hold down the Option key when clicking on the Purchases heading in the toolbar, to enable the download button for Lion.

    Hello,
    There are some Microsoft product like Windows Phone 7 Connector on the Mac App Store but for the moment Office is not there.
    In an interview last year Microsoft’s Amanda Lefebvre told Mobilized : “It’s something we are looking at”.

    If you have applications like iWork or the free OpenOffice (http://www.openoffice.org/) you will be able to read files created by Microsoft Office.

    You don't indicate what type of computer you are using. Here are two articles - one for Mac and one for Windows that provide troubleshooting steps you should take when your device does not show up in iTunes (not the App Store):
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X

    I recently updated my primary email address associated with my Apple ID account.
    Now when I go to App store on my iPad it still tries to login to the App store using the old email address I had associated with the account, and naturally my password doesn't work. I can't figure out how to tell my iPad to login using the updated email address.
    So in effect I'm locked out of the app store and I currently have 26 updates waiting.
    I've tried disconnecting and reconnecting my IPad to iCloud with no luck.. However I cloud happens to show the correct/updated email address.
    Does anyone know how to resolve this?
    Thanks

    Did you change the email for the Apple ID or did you create a new Apple ID? A new Apple ID cannot be used with content that was bought using a different Apple ID.

    If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then you can try going to https://appleid.apple.com/and click 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account. Then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side you might see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
    If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then see if this user tip helps you get the questions reset :https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4551
    e.g. you can try contacting iTunes Support :http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management , and then try Apple ID Account Security
    or try ringing the number for Apple  in your country and ask to talk to the Account Security Team : http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57

  • Cannot see my purchases in app  store

    Cannot see my purchases in app store. Screen blank but if I push randomly on the black part it shows the app??

    First question, why you're showing the screenshot from the iTunes? I understand that the account is the same, but why "iTunes in the Cloud"?
    Second, I don't have "Hidden Purchases" neither in Mac App Store nor in iTunes Store account. In iTunes account view there is only "there are two devices connected with this Apple ID...".
    In Mac App Store there is no "iTunes in the Cloud" nor "Mac in the Cloud" anything like that.

  • App Store requires 10.9 but I cannot download Mavericks without the App Store.  HELP!

    I did a fresh install of 10.6 and the upgrades got me to 10.6.8 but the included App Store from the upgrades requires 10.9.  I cannot download Mavericks without the App Store.  How do I find an old version of App Store or install Mavericks without the App Store?  HELP!

    Click the Apple  top left in your screen.
    From the drop down menu click:  About This Mac
    Double check to make sure you see: v10.6.8
    Make sure your Mac can run Mavericks >  OS X Mavericks: System Requirements
    Read prior to upgrading to Mavericks >  Upgrading to 10.7 and above, don't forget Rosetta!

  • How do I purchase apps from the app store using coupons?

    How do I purchase apps from the app store using coupons?

    Coupons as in iTunes Store Gift Cards? If you go to the iTunes store tab, there should be an option to "Redeem" in the Quick Links section on the right side of the home screen. Enter the code there to redeem the credit, and then download whatever you wish from the store.

  • I downloaded acdsee camera flash (us$0.99) in Hong Kong's app store, but i cannot find it in the app store after i changed to another iphone. it seems that the app is no longer available in HK, how can I get back the app?

    i downloaded acdsee camera flash (us$0.99) in Hong Kong's app store, but i cannot find it in the app store after i changed to another iphone. it seems that the app is no longer available in HK, how can I get back the app?

    First make sure you are searching the name correctly.
    If the app is no longer in the App Store it is no longer available for download. This happens when Apple has found the app violates the agreement with the developer or when the developer no longer wants the app listed in the App Store.
    If the app is truly no longer in the App Store your only option is to copy it from iTunes on the computer you normall sync with.
