WhatsApp on Your Desktop
WhatsApp announced the launch of WhatsApp Web on Wednesday, marking the official debut of the popular messaging app on non-mobile platforms. "Today, for the first time, millions of you will have the ability to use WhatsApp on your Web browser," the messaging app said announcing WhatsApp Web via a blog post.
WhatsApp has become ridiculously popular around the world, with over 700 million monthly active users, and while we've come to rely on the app as much as the next person, we've never liked the fact it can be accessed only on the phone. Yes, there are some workarounds for getting WhatsApp on a PC, but if, like us, you hate shuffling between the mobile and PC at work just to be able to use WhatsApp, WhatsApp Web will be music to your ears.
Simply head over to WhatsApp Web and as long as you are using Google Chrome, you'll be given a chance to scan a QR code on the desktop screen via the WhatsApp app on your mobile. Make sure you are using the latest version of WhatsApp on Android,
Windows Phone, or BlackBerry. If you are using WhatsApp on iPhone or wish to use a browser other than Chrome on your desktop, you are out of luck. At the time of filing this report, the version of WhatsApp for Android that supports this
feature was still in the process of being rolled out, so it's possible you may have to wait a while to get your hands on this feature. If you are amongst the lucky few who've been able to get in, let us know your experience with WhatsApp Web so far via the
comments.
