WhatsApp Web is a browser-based access to the messaging app.
It helps the users to get access to their conversations on WhatsApp and send messages on the app using their computer/laptop.
The web version syncs it with the user’s mobile application, displays media, conversations and real-time notifications.
It also allows users to access text, voice and video chats, share files and contacts management.
You can also use the website to copy and paste text, photos, and videos.
