WhatsApp has been giving users a premium messaging experience. The messaging application has roped in the latest technology and has also made it possible to make voice and video calls using the same messaging application. The added end-to-end encryption is another benefit that you get with this messaging application.
WhatsApp is just catering to Android or iPhone users. The app is also available for laptop and PC users in the form of WhatsApp web. The company has extended the same features to the desktop version allowing users to experience the same premium experience as the mobile app. You can use the WhatsApp Web version on any web browser available on your laptop or PC. You just have to log in to the WhatsApp web account using Google Chrome, Edge, and other browsers.
Once the account is logged in and you receive a message, a notification will pop up on the Chrome browser just like the mobile apps. But in some cases, WhatsApp message notifications wouldn’t show while you are using the desktop version. Notifications being turned off could be one of the reasons you are not getting notified of incoming messages or calls on WhatsApp web.
Blocked notifications could be another factor. What should you do if you can’t receive notifications on Chrome while using WhatsApp web? Well, this article has all the steps mentioned that will help you resolve this issue with the WhatApp web notification on Google Chrome.
