Updated | By Poelano Malema
No internet on your phone? No stress. It seems you might soon be able to use Whatsapp without your mobile data.
WhatsApp is one of the most popular messaging services that is used to connect people all over the world. It reportedly has over two- billion users.
Over the years, it has been working on improving its service and features.
One of its cool features is that you can connect WhatsApp on your mobile and desktop. This is done simply by using your phone to scan the QR code on your computer or portal.
But, in order for the feature to work properly, you needed to have data/internet on your cellphone.
The company is looking to change that.
According to a report by Jagran, WhatsApp is working on a feature that will allow its users to receive messages on desktop without having an internet connection on the phone.

What’s also great is that the new feature will allow users to connect to WhatsApp on multi-device features, up to four at a time.
The site states that the feature is under testing process and will be available soon.
