WhatsApp is available on the web and in a tablet application. This means that you can simultaneously access your WhatsApp account on your phone, tablet, laptop or PC. Here's how to access WhatsApp Web.

You can use Chrome, Firefox, Opera, Safari or Edge. Due to browser limitations, some functions may be missing from the WhatsApp website.

1. Visit web.whatsapp.com on your computer. (Make sure it's the client or official website)
2. When you are asked for a QR code, use the QR scanner inside WhatsApp to scan the QR code.
3. To do so, open WhatsApp on your phone.
   • On Android: on the Chats screen> Menu> WhatsApp Web.
   • In iPhone: go to Settings> WhatsApp Web.
   • In Windows Phone: Go to Menu> WhatsApp Web.
4. Scan the QR code on your computer screen from your phone.

If you believe that someone has scanned your QR code and has access to your account through the WhatsApp website, use the following instructions to disconnect from all your active web sessions on WhatsApp on your mobile phone. Click here .

Note: If you can not scan the QR code, make sure the main camera of your phone is working correctly. If the camera can not focus automatically, is blurred or broken, you may not be able to scan the barcode. Currently, there is no other way to log in to WhatsApp Web.
