WhatsApp is still the best and the most used online messaging client out there and it’s getting improved day by day. To be the best, you’ll have to do the best- WhatsApp has followed this and now they’ve surprised us by adding the web client of them which is the most major improvement of WhatsApp till date. This web client allow you to log in to your WhatsApp account by scanning a QR code by your device’s camera which pops up on your desktop when you visit the client’s link. This feature is supported only on Android, Window Phone, BlackBerry OS, BlackBerry 10 OS and NOKIA S60 and also you’ll have to use Google Chrome to use this new feature. Though iOS is not supported for the platform limitation of Apple. On their blog the company has said, “We really hope you find web client useful in your everyday lives.”
