WhatsApp is one of the most widely used messaging applications in the world. Most people assume that WhatsApp is available only for smartphone users. However, it has always been available for PC users as a web version.

The web version of Whatsapp can be used only if you have an account on its smartphone version. Thus, you cannot create an account on WhatsApp web but, log in to an existing WhatsApp account.

WhatsApp web provides almost all the features provided by its smartphone version. The only important feature which was missing was voice and video calling. However, the developers have finally come up with a solution.

Now, PC users can use WhatsApp’s Desktop Client to avail of all the features provided by WhatsApp for free!

Features of WhatsApp Offline Installer

Some notable features of Whatsapp’s Desktop Client include:

1. Message Notification.

Just like Whatsapp keeps running in the background of your smartphone, WhatsApp’s Desktop Client will also run in the background and notify you when any new message is received.

2. Voice and Video Calls.

As we mentioned above, the web version of Whatsapp did not come with the voice and video call feature. This feature has now been added to Whatsapp’s Desktop Client.

3. Modify Settings.

Previously, it was impossible to modify WhatsApp settings through a desktop. But, with the all-new Desktop Client of Whatsapp, you can modify Whatsapp settings such as hide read receipts, enable disappearing messages, and more through your PC.

Now that we have discussed the features provided by the Desktop Client of Whatsapp, let us understand more about the Whatsapp Offline Installer, which allows users to install Whatsapp on their desktop.
