WhatsApp created a lot of buzz last month with the launch of WhatsApp Web that brought the popular messaging service to desktops. The service however was initially compatible with just Google Chrome.
The company has now finally added two more browsers - Firefox and Opera - that support WhatsApp Web client. WhatsApp confirmed the news via a tweet on Wednesday and said, "WhatsApp Web: https://web.whatsapp.com-Firefox and Opera browsers are now supported!"
Much like Google Chrome, users who want to use WhatsApp Web have to scan a QR code on the desktop screen via the WhatsApp app on the mobile. For the uninitiated, the WhatsApp Web works only with the latest version of WhatsApp on Android, Windows Phone, or BlackBerry. The company is yet to launch a Web interface for iOS users. WhatsApp earlier this week started rolling out voice calling feature to more people via an app update. The company however is yet to make an official announcement regarding the feature and there was no mention of it in release notes on Google Play either.
