How to use WhatsApp on a computer or laptop web browser

After a long time of hoping, finally WhatsApp can also be used via a computer or laptop web browser. This is very useful when we want to copy messages/articles from computer to cellphone or vice versa. What I like about WhatsApp is that this application is lighter than its competitors, both BlackBerry Messenger, Line, Kakao Talk and the like.

WhatsApp is one of the most popular messenger applications and can be used on many platforms including Android, Blackberry, Windows Phone and iOS. A good news for WhatsApp users, because in the latest WhatsApp update version 2.11.498 released on January 21, 2015, WhatsApp has added a new feature, namely the browser version of WhatsApp. So we can send and receive WhatsApp messages on a computer web browser. 

• In the browser open the address web.whatsapp.com . Then choose what platform you are using, android, blackberry, windows phone or iOS. Then a QR code will appear. Scan the QR code using your smartphone.

Point the camera at the QR code in your computer or laptop browser. Don't forget to upgrade to the latest version first because in the old version this menu is not available.
