How To Use Whatsapp Web For iPhone and iPad + Other Features

While the WhatsApp application is waxing stronger in the mobile world, Apple’s iPhone and iPad seemed to have been in the dark until recently.

Whatsapp update for iOS brings whatsapp web feature

sometime back, the WhatsApp Web Feature was introduced and that has ever since, been awesome as most people tend to use the feature.

The feature basically allows using the mobile messenger app on your computer without having to toggle between computer and phone in a bid to replying chats.

I have personally been using it for a while now and I would recommend giving it a shot. It takes away a lot of stress. Especially if you happen to be using your computer a lot of the time.

A few weeks back, I wrote a detailed tutorial that explained how you can spy on your spouse whatsapp conversations without them knowing.

While iOS devices couldn’t perform the function as a result of the WhatsApp Web Feature being absent, a reader lamented the issue via a comment on that post.
