WhatsApp Guest Chats: Messaging Non-Users via Web Browser
WhatsApp is creating a way for you to text people who don't use the app!
It's called 'Guest Chats.'
You'll send a special link, and they can chat with you in their web browser, like using WhatsApp on a computer.
However, this will only let you send text messages, not pictures, videos, or make calls, for now.
This feature is still being worked on.
WhatsApp is developing a 'Guest Chat' feature.
Guest Chats allow communication with individuals without a WhatsApp account.
Non-users can join chats via a web browser using a provided link.
Guest chats will initially support text-only messages.
The feature is currently under development and spotted in the Android beta.
