WhatsApp is a messaging application that works on Windows devices. This service connects you to people worldwide, no matter how they may be separated by space and time.

You can send messages, share files and videos, play games, exchange photos, videos, and more with this simple, easy-to-use, yet impressive tool.

Main benefits

The service supports all major languages, whether you speak or read. WhatsApp for Windows is a straightforward, easy-to-use, yet powerful application that enables you to communicate in real-time - the way you used to.

WhatsApp gives you another way to connect to people anywhere globally, no matter whether you are at work or home, using your cell phone or a computer at school or home. The mobile app is automatically synced between your smartphone and laptop/tablet. To use WhatsApp for Windows, first, download it.

Once downloaded, go to the "application settings" area of the webpage. Here, you will see the different options available such as language & region, account type, etc. You also have the option of setting up password-protected contacts.

The app's official desktop version also supports all browsers, including Chrome, Safari, Firefox, and Opera.

What about synchronization?

The two primary ways to connect to someone using Whatsapp on Windows are using the QR code on their web page or searching for their email ID on Google. However, due to a limit on the number of supported social applications, Whatsapp won't support some of the most popular ones, such as Facebook, Twitter, and G+. This is because these social networks use proprietary codes that aren't compatible with the open-source code.

Desktop versions

While some argue that WhatsApp for Windows isn't technically different from mobile phones, there is a lot of difference between them. In terms of functionality, they are virtually identical. For example, both apps allow you to send and receive push notifications, documents, etc.

Conclusion

WhatsApp's significant advantage compared to other SMS messaging apps is that it is one of the first online messaging apps. Besides, the messaging app is easy to install and works great on tablets, smartphones, computers, laptops, gaming consoles, and other web-connected devices.
