But it still requires the official mobile app for the initial login. When I used it, logging in once seemed to be good for a few months, as long you open it from time to time. There’s also a Whatsapp clone that seems to support login, but I haven’t tried it and it hasn’t seen updates in a couple years: https://github.com/KhubaibKhan4/Whatsify-Android
Thanks. It seems to be just whatsapp web in an app form, so I could probaby just go to my browser. But that’s still an interesting idea that never ocurred to me on phone.
Is there, by any chance, an alternative client?
There’s the Whatsapp web client on F-Droid: https://f-droid.org/en/packages/io.kuenzler.whatsappwebtogo/
