The first steps are used to. Currently the service only works with Google's Chrome browser and mobile operating systems, Android, Windows Phone and BlackBerry. A version of the service that works with iPhones, is not yet available. WhatsApp on your smartphone must be up to date, because the Web function has just installed first.
