hey i heard Whatsapp Is Coming to desktop in early 2015 hope thats true
Just Heard WhatsApp Coming to Desktop
WhatsApp is available on almost every mobile platform, including discontinued platforms like Symbian and Nokia Series 40, but has never developed a web client. New reports say WhatsApp will finally come to the desktop, after five years of availability. The new web client will use OAuth, sending a message to the mobile to verify to user on the web client.

Creating a web client has been on WhatsApp users wish-list for the past few years, even with the surge to mobile in developing nations, where WhatsApp is most popular. The web client should have extra functionality for the larger screen.
Facebook has taken a mobile-first approach for its newest features, but still updates the web client regularly to keep up with new features. Facebook may have pushed WhatsApp to create a web client.
WhatsApp continues to be the dominant messaging app worldwide, with 650 million active users. WeChat, LINE, Viber, Skype and various other messaging platforms are all vying for attention.
It looks like Facebook wants to split the two messaging services, having WhatsApp in Asia and Facebook Messenger in the West. The social network does not seem keen to merge the two services together.

Hi all.
I have a friend with WP7 and I want to talk without using SMS. There's any software compatible with android that is also in WP7 platform?
In my O3D i have Whatsapp, and IM+, but he can't find those apps in WP7 platform.
Thanks
Hi alvyweb,
Of course your friend is encouraged to use IM+ on his Windows Phone!
Please, tell him that IM+ is available in 2 versions in Microsoft Marketplace (Windows Phone Marketplace) under the Social Networking category. He can get to Marketplace from his phone's home screen.
Alternatively, he can find IM+ in Marketplace on his desktop computer via Zune application.
In this case please give him the direct link to the free version of IM+ for Windows Phone, which is ad-supported:
http://social.zune.net/redirect?type=phoneApp&id=7c59963c-ddae-e011-a53c-78e7d1fa76f8
and to paid IM+ Pro, without ads and with longer Skype session:

Did you ever wonder which words you use most in your WhatsApp chats or who the most active person in a group chat is? Or maybe you want to know if there are any weird surges in your message activity at a certain time or day.
If those are questions that keep you awake at night (or if you just like colorful graphs) then this is the app for you.

Please let me know what you think of my app, all suggestions are welcome. I would also really appreciate reviews on Google Play.
Excellent app mate, are there any possibility to see which sentences or phrases are repeated in the chats?
Sent from my XT1042 using XDA-Developers mobile app
Glad that you like it, that's always nice to hear.
As for the sentences and phrases, while it would theoretically be possible to add such a feature, it would require a lot of computing power (at least a lot more than a modern smartphone has) to do this in a reasonable amount of time. As you might have noticed it already takes a little while to analyze larger chats and this would make that time even longer.
For reasons known only to WhatsApp, users are now unable to login to web.whatsapp.com on their Android phones, because opting to view the Desktop site now shows this page:

I tried quite a few browsers and was unable to keep the web session active (even when I managed to login), despite changing the user agent where the setting was available. If the phone with WhatsApp is not connected, WhatsApp will automatically redirect the session to the above page on an Android phone.
However, i finally found a way to work around this: Opera Browser (or Opera Beta)!
There are two settings that need to change here:
The browser then successfully keeps the web session active and users can use WhatsApp on other Android phones for 14 days without getting disconnected, if the phone with WhatsApp installed is not connected to internet.
At the time of writing, this is tested to work on version 72 and newer versions of Opera browser (and Opera Beta, but not Mini or other variants). Hopefully WhatsApp will not block this too in future.
On iOS, WhatsApp Web is tested to work on Google Chrome browser (version 111 and newer).
Hope this helps.
If anyone knows another Android browser that works, or another workaround, please let us know here.
This may no longer be needed as WhatsApp has finally decided to support multiple phones:
One WhatsApp account, now across multiple phones

Hi . I have a major issue. Whatsapp has stopped backing up locally and the last backup was a month ago and drive backups do not work. It keeps saying unable to create backup.It keeps saying unable to create backup. Please find screenshot attached there is no new crypt file other than old outdated ones and also whatsapp is taking way more storage than it should be. It should only consume 12gb including those two files in databases but it is taking over 50gb so my plan was to uninstall and reinstall but backups are not working which is risky. Please find all the screenshots attached.
