You can recieve incoming messages and calls, as well as reply with voice to text dictation or prebuilt answers, but you can not yet initiate a conversation or call. Same with Hangouts.

thanks for the response but just to clarify, WhatsApp works as u described even when the watch is not in Bluetooth range and is running on LTE. right?

Correct, when in stand-alone mode with a SIM card in it or within a known wifi network. It basically picks up whatsap messages that go to your main cell phone number since the watch and phone are connected remotely when not connected through BT. If your cell is shut off, you won't get the messages.

Something I have not tried is setting up my watch sim number as a different whatsap account (separate from my phone), so I could receive messages when my phone is at home AND off.
