If you’re preparing to use a messaging application for the first time and if it crossed your mind to install WhatsApp because of its awesome features, the only problem you encountered is related to the fact that it doesn’t have an official version for Windows OS, therefore you’ll need an Android Emulator to be able to install WhatsApp on a computer/laptop/Mac and in this article, we’ll guide you how to do that.
With WhatsApp, the users can send unlimited messages to their friends from all over the world, who use the same application. Besides that, the users can also send images, videos, audio files, but their size mustn’t exceed 16MB. Whatsapp, which is owned by Facebook, is addressing to mobile devices users, but not all of them are happy to type on a touchscreen, especially if their smartphones have small displays, and would like to be able to type easier with a physical keyboard, at home, in front of their computers, reading conversations from a big monitor. Because Facebook hasn’t expressed its intentions to make a Desktop version, many people are looking for solutions to install Whatsapp on the computers. The good news is that they can install it for free for any device running on Windows 7 and 8.1 or even on Macs.
Below, we’ll teach you how to install WhatsApp on these devices.

When you finally succeed to launch Bluestacks, click on the Search button and look for WhatsApp and click on its icon to download the application to your device. If you fail to download it automatically, try to do it manually by going to Browse > whatsapp.com/download.
