Key notes

WhatsApp Web is a web version of WhatsApp and it allows you to chat with your friends using your browser. In order to use WhatsApp for Web, all you need to do is scan the QR code on your screen and you will have access.

The only downside is that sometimes, it may happen that when you’re trying to load the QR code in Firefox, it does not load.

You can use WhatsApp for Web on any device where you can access the Internet, including your computer. It works in any browser, including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, and Safari on macOS or iOS devices such as an iPhone or iPad.

Quick Tip:

WhatsApp is already integrated into the Opera One browser for convenience, allowing you to do more in one place without having to download Whatsapp Web.

To pair your phone’s WhatsApp account with your computer, simply scan a QR code. You can always mute WhatsApp message notifications, or simply log out if you want to take a break.
