WhatsApp Comes To The Desktop

Are you one of the 600 million people on WhatsApp? Do you grow tired of having to type all of your messages through your phone? Good news!

There’s now a desktop version.

It’s a web app rather than a native client — and for now, at least, it seems to only play friendly with Google Chrome.

But if you’re ready to dive in, you can find the new web-ready version of WhatsApp right over here…

One weird catch: to log in on the desktop, you have to take a picture of a QR code through WhatsApp on your phone. This works on Android, Windows Phone, and BlackBerry… but “due to Apple platform limitations”, iOS users are left out in the cold.
