WhatsApp has a Web client, so if there's a usable browser, you have access to it too. (Someone also wrote an Electron-based desktop wrapper, but there's no indication of whether it works on ARM.) The main issue with the PinePhone Pro, as I understand it, is that the software is effectively alpha quality as yet. Another year or two and it should hopefully be a lot more usable. It can run several different Linux distros as well as Android, but reliability for phone-specific stuff just isn't there yet. E.
