So, for everyone except Apple iPhone\/iOS users, WhatsApp has announced<\/a> WhatsApp Web<\/a> which enables you to chat with your WhatsApp contacts on the PC. This is included at least in WhatsApp version 2.11.498 on Android. Also it requires Google Chrome<\/a> on the desktop.<\/p>\n

It’s basically a web-based extension to the app running on the smartphone. The smartphone still has to be on-line, messages\/chats are just mirrored. To activate, open WhatsApp Web<\/a> in Google Chrome<\/a>, then open WhatsApp on your phone and select “WhatsApp Web” from the menu (globe symbol) to scan the generated QR-code and thus connect your phone account to the web application.<\/p>\n

I couldn’t try it yet, on my mobile there’s the “OK, got it<\/a>” missing, my screen is too small:<\/p>\n

Switching to languages with shorter words (for example Mandarin) didn’t help, although it was an interesting experience. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n

UPDATE: In Version 2.11.505 (Android) this was fixed<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

\n—
\nWhatsApp hat f\u00fcr alle m\u00f6glichen Smartphone-Plattformen au\u00dfer Apple iPhone\/iOs WhatsApp Web<\/a> angek\u00fcndigt<\/a>. Damit kann man dann am PC mit seinen WhatsApp Kontakten chatten. Zumindest ab Version 2.11.498 auf Android ist die Funktion enthalten. Auf dem Desktop wird Google Chrome<\/a> ben\u00f6tigt.<\/p>\n

Letztendlich ist es eine web-basierte Erweiterung zur Smartphone-App. Das Smartphone mu\u00df immer noch online sein, die Nachrichten und Chats werden nur gespiegelt. Um es zu aktivieren mu\u00df WhatsApp Web<\/a> in Google Chrome<\/a> ge\u00f6ffnet werden, dann WhatsApp auf dem Handy \u00f6ffnen und “WhatsApp Web” (Globus-Symbol) ausw\u00e4hlen. Dort den angezeigten QR-Code scannen, um das Telefon mit der Web-Anwendung zu verbinden.<\/p>\n

Ich konnte es noch nicht ausprobieren, auf meinem Handy kann ich die Animation zum Scannen des QR-Codes nicht wegdr\u00fccken, der Bildschirm ist zu klein. Auch der Wechsel zu einer Sprache mit k\u00fcrzeren W\u00f6rtern (Mandarin z.B.) hat nichts gebracht, war aber eine interessante Erfahrung ;).<\/p>\n

UPDATE: In Version 2.11.505 (Android) wurde der Fehler behoben<\/strong> (Bilder s.o.)<\/p>\n
