The beta version of the WhatsApp Windows app is now available for download. It can be downloaded from Microsoft’s Windows app store.
As per reports, It’s a Universal Windows Platform app, so you would not have to connect your phone to use the Windows app.
The Windows app for WhatsApp comes with features including a new writing pad and support for multi-device functionality. The app is based on the Universal Windows Platform which means that in order to use the WhatsApp beta app for Windows, you will not need your phone in a working condition. The app is currently in beta, so one can expect WhatsApp to add more features or remove some existing ones.
