Recently WhatsApp released its new app for Windows which makes it easier to use WhatsApp Web on your PC.

Today, the company updated the web wrapper to version 0.2.2234, bringing along a number of new features. The update brings:

  • New emoji
  • The ability to browse shared images.
  • A button to select and share animated gifs.
  • Search within chat.
  • UI improvements.

As WhatsApp for Windows is essentially a web wrapper for WhatsApp Web, the update should come automatically. If not, browse to C:\Windows\Users\* username * \AppData\Local\WhatsApp and run Update.exe.

If you want to download WhatsApp for Windows, you can get it from this link.
