Apple finally gets on the WhatsApp Web train

Successfully living on desktops and Chrome browser (Mozilla Firefox and Opera too) running machines since the beginning of the year, WhatsApp Web finally supports the iPhone. Those fortunate enough to be in possession of either Android, Windows or Blackberry devices would’ve had it since then but Apple had platform limitations earlier on.

You’ll be able to make use of the WhatsApp Web client given that you have these three browsers Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox and Opera. Frequent WhatsApp users who’d prefer to have access to the app on their desktop can use the web client here and just scan the QR code using your iPhone to link your computer.

Other than having a steady internet connection for your desktop, one must have their smart phones constantly connected to the internet, so WhatsApp Web can’t function if otherwise. It’ll also sync chat history and it’ll reflect on both devices the same so nothing will be lost in translation. Sending photos on the other hand, can be done by pulling files from your desktop or webcam, easing cross-platform sharing.

WhatsApp on your desktop can be a win-win in the office too, saving you from always looking at your mobile phone and pretending to do work without getting caught. Just be sure to not let it affect your work productivity.
