For many of us it is great news that WhatsApp is finally available now on web! Yes you can now chat from your laptop using internet browser on your pc or mac. For all those curious ones, I have came up with the tutorial to show you how you can start using WhatsApp on web.

First of all I would like to tell that if you are using WhatsApp on iOS device then probably there is no room for you here as WhatsApp on web is not yet supported on iOS devices. WhatsApp has promised that they will soon get this feature on iOS too and as soon as they do it, we will update this tutorial for iOS so stay tuned iOS users to get those updates. Now If you are an Android, Windows or Blackberry user than this feature will surely work for you but the condition here is you have to update WhatsApp on your device to the latest version. If you haven’t updated yet, then first of all update the WhatsApp on your smart device. The another important thing is WhatsApp on Web supports only chrome browser, so if you are using any other browsers than install chrome browser on your pc or laptop. Once you do it, follow below given steps.
