Worldly popular texting service WhatsApp heads to the web. Until now, users could only send messages, images and other content from mobile devices, but now WhatsApp has introduced that too web client as an addition to devices with Android, Windows and BlackBerry. Unfortunately, we still have to wait for the connection of web WhatsApp with iPhones.
"Of course, the primary usage is still on mobile," he said pros The Verge a WhatsApp spokesperson, "but there are people who spend a lot of time in front of a computer at home or at work, and this will help them connect the two worlds."
The arrival of WhatsApp also on computer screens is a logical step that follows, for example, Apple and its iMessage. In the latest operating systems OS X Yosemite and iOS 8, users can now receive and send messages freely from both iPhone and Mac. "We really hope that the web client will be useful for you in your daily life," they hope in WhatsApp.
With more than 600 million users, WhatsApp is one of the largest chat services in the world, and the web client will certainly find its uses. Since December, there has been talk about the next development step of WhatsApp, which could become voice calls, but the company has not yet confirmed this.
A WhatsApp spokesperson promised that the plan is to connect the web client to iOS devices as well, but he is not yet able to give a specific time frame. At the same time, the web client works only in Google Chrome, support for other browsers is on the way.
and how can i install whatsapp on ipad? see the sentence in the article: "Unfortunately, we have to wait for the connection of web WhatsApp with iPhones and iPads." Logically, it follows that it should also work on the iPad. Thanks for advice.
This is our fault, WhatsApp is still not on iPad either. Thanks for the note.
But it can be installed on an iPad, although I have it for an iPhone, but it can be done.

Unfortunately, Apple also wrote in this, as well as WhatsApp... Millions of people have to use Windows at work, so they leave iMessage... This is how I transferred all communication to Facebook Messenger...
Download Viber and you will be connected even on PC. It already works there in practice :)
Exactly, and since WA was bought by FB, I canceled my account and only use Viber.
Great job - works with older Nokias too (S60, Symbian Belle, etc.)
