WhatsApp is updated to be able to do ... what we could already do

whatsapp

We can't say that WhatsApp They usually surprise us with updates loaded with news. Nor can we say that it updates very often, but when a update It arrives with indicating a novelty that we already have available for two weeks, this borders on the surreal. As you can see, the update only includes a new feature which is «Now with WhatsApp Web: you can send and receive WhatsApp messages from your computer. To get started: open WhatsApp and go to settings - WhatsApp Web«.

This "novelty", which comes in version 2.12.6 of the application, is funny, because WhatsApp Web for iOS is already available from August 19. We remember that to use WhatsApp Web we have to go to web.whatsapp.com and scan the code with our iPhone by going to, as it says in the update, the WhatsApp settings and selecting WhatsApp Web. From what it seems, WhatsApp Inc. was the only one who had not found out about what they themselves had launched.

On the 19th we already talked so much about the possibility of using the application with the Internet navigator, the possibility of using it with chitchat as of a possible problem when using the messaging app in Google Chrome, problem that is solved (not always) by installing an extension called User-Agent Switcher that allows us to fool some websites by telling them that we are using a browser that we are not actually using. In short, the update that has just come to us has already been explained for two weeks.

If there are any other surprises that we have not been told, we will only find out in time. The possibility of using WhatsApp Web was available (with jailbreak) long before it was announced on their website and it would not be the first time they released something new that they did not write about in the App Store update. Therefore, do not hesitate to comment if you have found something that was not in the previous version of WhatsApp.

    it is only for IOS8.1 +

    1.    Pedro said

      What do you mean? I try to uninstall it and I can't either

  28.   djchucky39 said

    Simply uninstall the Whatssap app, you go to the app store, give updates to Purchased and you reinstall it and that's all.

    1.    Pedro said

      The problem is that I can't uninstall the whatssap app

  29.   djchucky39 said

    press and hold the whatssap icon until you see the icons tremble and hit X to delete it

  30.   Pedro said

    OK thanks. I will remove it and reinstall it

  31.   Iza said

    The same thing happens to me, since I update the application does not open. I have 4s

      I tell you that, now WhatsApp works, on my iPhone 4, the only thing I did was take the photos from my iPhone to free up space, and connect it to the computer through itune, and after half an hour it worked. I don't know if it has something to do with it, but I'll tell you about it
