New WhatsApp version is not well accepted

WhatsApp offers a web version so that users can access their accounts from their computers. Although alternatives often make people’s lives easier, the system doesn’t always work as expected.

In early April, several users complained on their Twitter accounts that browser Messenger was slow, even after the message appeared that there was no history of what had been previously sent to the cell phone.

How whatsapp web works

Before the new feature, the cell phone served as the main device to make it possible to access messages from a computer. It was as if the mobile device only “mirrored” the content.

In short, it is as if the new device has received a “pass key” to download, decrypt and store the information contained on the cell phone. Thus, after processing, the computer erases this key, but the message remains associated with the history.

“Other data requires more than the initial transfer from the phone,” the company explains on its website, describing what that data is.

However, it is important to note that Messenger uses the synchronization method that is used by cell phones when updating, such as when a new contact is added, the conversation is silenced or the message is sent. is marked as a favourite. Providing option of stickers.–sproutwired.com
