How to activate and use WhatsApp for Web

WhatsApp Web is a great way to extend the features of the messaging platform to the desktop. The web client is easy to set up and use, it has the same visual interface as the mobile version of the app, and messages sync instantly between your phone and the web. Here's how you can set up and use WhatsApp Web.

How to activate and use WhatsApp for Web

To use WhatsApp on the web, you'll need to link the web client with your phone. To do so, navigate to web.whatsapp.com on your computer. You'll see a QR code on the page, and you'll have to scan this with your phone to link your account to the web version. Here's what you'll need to do on your phone:

1. Open WhatsApp from the app drawer or home screen.
2. Tap the action overflow menu (three vertical dots) on the top right corner.
3. Hit WhatsApp Web.

4. Point the phone at the QR code on web.whatsapp.com.

   

That's all there is to it. Your account is now linked to the web client, and you'll be able to use WhatsApp directly from your browser. WhatsApp Web lets you share documents, photos and videos, contacts, and even use your computer's camera to take photos and share them. You can also view your friends' stories, initiate new chats, change your profile photo, and use the search feature within chats.

Most of the features that you use on a day-to-day basis on WhatsApp on your phone are available here, and that makes WhatsApp Web a particularly great utility. If you're not keen on running WhatsApp in a browser, you can download the Windows client and have it running natively on your computer.
