Use WhatsApp Using Your Desktop Computer PC

To provide you with a richer communication experience, WhatsApp is now accessible both on your phone and your computer. WhatsApp Web is a computer based extension of the WhatsApp account on your phone. The messages you send and receive are fully synced between your phone and your computer, and you can see all messages on both devices. Any action you take on the phone will apply to WhatsApp Web and vice versa. At this time, WhatsApp Web is available only for Android, Windows Phone 8.0 and 8.1, Nokia S60, Nokia S40 Single SIM EVO, BlackBerry and BB10 smartphones.
WhatsApp Web is not another WhatsApp account. When you use WhatsApp on your computer and your phone, you are simply accessing the same account on these two devices.
There are a few minimum requirements to enjoy WhatsApp Web:

• You need to have an active WhatsApp account on your phone.
• You need to have a stable internet connection on both your phone and your computer.
• You need to use the latest version of Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, or Opera as your web browser.

To get started with WhatsApp Web you must first pair your phone and computer:

• Visit web.whatsapp.com on your computer.
• Open WhatsApp on your phone and go to Menu > WhatsApp Web.
• Scan the QR Code on your computer.

From your phone, navigate to WhatsApp Web to view your Logged in computers or to logout from an active WhatsApp Web session.
NOTE: To avoid data usage charges on your phone, we recommend that you are always connected to Wi-Fi when using WhatsApp Web.

Voice Calling Using WhatsApp Messenger

WhatsApp - which is owned by social media giant Facebook - has only been an instant messaging service, allowing users to send text messages to each other over a data network.

Now WhatsApp has recently introduced a calling feature as well.

How to get WhatsApp calling

To get the WhatsApp calling feature, you will need to firstly have an Android smartphone.

Secondly, you will need to download the latest version of WhatsApp for Android. After multiple flip-flops, WhatsApp has finally released the voice-calling feature for all Android users. You will need to download version 2.11.528 from the Play Store or version 2.11.531 from the WhatsApp website.

The voice-calling can be activated is by receiving a call from someone whose  voice-calling is already activated. After you get the call, you need to close and then reopen the app. After that, instead of seeing the most recent chats, you will get three tabs namely Calls, Chats and Contacts. The call tab shows incoming, outgoing and missed calls at the precise times.

This time around WhatsApp has decided to keep the invite-window open for longer duration. Unlike some weeks back when WhatsApp had kept the invite-window open only for a couple of hours.

WhatsApp has been beta-testing the voice-calling feature for quite a while now. We had earlier seen, how WhatsApp was testing this calling feature in India and has currently been enabled.
Users who receive the voice-calling feature will notice an icon for it, beside the Chats and Contacts tabs. The call interface seems to quite similar to a smartphone’s contact directory. The app keeps a record of recent WhatsApp calls as well.

Beware of the malware which was promed access to the WhatsApp voice-calling feature. If users clicked on a link, they were taken to another website where they were asked to take a survey on behalf of the popular messaging service. However, the survey forces people to download applications and software that might contain dangerous malware.So, Please upgrade the whatsApp with the latest version from Google Play Store or WhatsApp site only
