If you’re a passionate user of the wildly popular messaging service, WhatsApp, but find yourself growing weary of constantly tapping away at your phone screen, we’ve got some exciting news for you.
WhatsApp has recently launched a new feature, one that you may find incredibly useful – a desktop version. This serves as a full-fledged web app, giving you even greater accessibility and convenience while using the service. It’s another giant leap forward from WhatsApp, aimed at bringing its users more flexibility in the way they communicate. Simply follow this link to access the new desktop edition of the app.
But, there’s a bit more to it. To use the desktop version of WhatsApp, you’ll have to go through a brief setup process. You’ll need to scan a QR code using the camera function inside the WhatsApp app on your phone. This one-time authentication measure links your phone and your computer, synchronizing your messages across both devices. This feature is currently compatible with Android, Windows Phone, and BlackBerry devices. The company has promised to expand the capability to other operating systems soon.
We encourage you to go ahead and give it a try. We promise it will revolutionize your WhatsApp experience. Feel free to share your user-experiences, thoughts, or queries with us in the comments section below.
