WhatsApp , the widespread app for chatting on smartphones, may soon land on computer following the road service rivals such as Telegram and WeChat . The company, owned by Facebook, has not made announcements about it, but the Dutch site AndroidWorld.nl, looking between the codes of the latest versions of the application, has found the words ‘WhatsApp Web’ which suggests the arrival of a version of the service can be used on PCs.
With over 600 million users, WhatsApp is among the most used app for chatting from smartphones. Registration to the service is, however, through the mobile phone number, so it is currently incompatible with computers. The company, according to rumors, would be thinking to an authentication system via mobile phone to access the chat from your computer. The ability to exchange messages via PC also, incidentally, has already been offered by rivals such as applications Telegram, WeChat, Viber and Line. In theory it is possible even with WhatsApp, but at the time the procedure is cumbersome. The latest update of AirDroid, the program that allows the management of Android devices via web browser, contains AirMirror, which lets you play your smartphone screen on your computer.
In this way, users of Android Whatsapp – not those who use it on the iPhone – are eligible for the app from pc, waiting for the company launches a service ‘ad hoc’. But above all, it launches the real news, which was announced a few months ago and never put into practice: the call through the chat, as it already does Viber.
