The world’s most popular instant messaging application WhatsApp has been supporting the Windows ecosystem for a long time. Users can download the local desktop version of WhatsApp from the Microsoft Store and move the instant messaging application to their computers. Now, there has been a remarkable development on this issue. It has been revealed that WhatsApp is working on a new desktop version for the macOS ecosystem.
