Error that Chrome could show
As you all know, Web WhatsApp It became available for iPhone a little over 24 hours ago. To use this option we need to pair WhatsApp on our iPhone with a browser, which must be at the address web.whatsapp.com. Once there, we go to the iPhone's WhatsApp settings, choose WhatsApp Web and it will automatically start scanning the code. Once scanned, we can leave the iPhone and start chatting from our computer. But it is possible that the browser cannot access this service, unless we install an extension for it.
The extension that solves this problem is called User-Agent Switcher and what it does is allow us to mislead the websites by reporting that we are using a browser that we are not actually using. Once installed, at least in the case of Google Chrome (which is where it has been proven to work), we can now seamlessly pair our iPhone with the browser and use WhatsApp Webb, so we can uninstall the Chrome extension. In any case, I do not recommend that you uninstall the extension in case you have problems with a website and you have to use it again to return the browser to its original state.
Although we have only verified that works in google chrome (in Safari it is not necessary), this extension is also available for Firefox and Opera. If you use another browser, you can always do a search for the name of the extension to see if you can use it in your browser, but it seems unlikely that you do not use any of the three mentioned and that your browser does not work with WhatsApp Web.
We take this opportunity to remember that Mac users, in addition to the fact that it does work with Safari, also have a small application available called ChitChat, in case we want to distance ourselves from the browser. If, despite everything, you do not want to change browsers or use ChitChat, below are the links to download User-Agent Switcher for Chrome, Firefox and Opera:

I will never use whatsapp web ... If the App is not very secure on my iPhone, imagine in any browser on a PC !!! My goodness, I don't even want to think about it ... Option totally ruled out, I also don't see anything interesting unless you work all day in front of a PC and you don't want to waste your battery ... It's not my case, I have a 6 Plus and the battery It's hard that is nice, I charge it every night like this and I have never run out of battery since September of last year that I have it !!! I said an unnecessary and unsafe option.
Well, I work all day at the desktop and on the pc.
I use the jail tweak and it is easier for me to type in lap than in cell. although I have not had that problem that they say
Install the extension and it doesn't work either, any other suggestions?
it works in opera without doing anything extra
On the iPad with Safari it works if you change it to the desktop version and it works very well!
I do not load all the WatsApp Web emoticons in Chrome Version 56.0.2924.87 (64-bit), Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS operating system.
