One of the biggest shortcomings of Whatsapp was that it was limited to your smartphone. And that has been helping its competitors to eat Whatsapp’s fair share of customers fulfilling that drawback. I myself has been using the Telegram app a lot just because I could message from my computer. Well, Whatsapp has now put an end, well almost an end to that by releasing a web client that can work on the Google Chrome browser. Please note that it also needs you to be an Android Whatsapp user. Due to limitations on iOS, as Whatsapp say, the functionality cannot be enjoyed by those on iOS at the moment. If you’re one of those who use Whatsapp on Android, then head on to https://web.whatsapp.com to enjoy Whatsapp right from your computer. You may also want to head to Play Store just to ensure you have the latest version of Whatsapp on your phone.
