A waste of time! If my phone has to be on still, then what for? They should allow me to switch off my phone, but later sync the conversations when I go online. On 22 January 2015 at 16:28, Tony Likhanga via skunkworks < skunkworks@lists.my.co.ke> wrote:

Most probably you never got to tinker with the previously-available work-arounds that whatsapp has been fighting all along - Whatsap Pidgin plugin - Whatsapple - Wassap - Android Emulators et al Most of those were far much practical compared to this official pain; hence the "Dog in a manger" tag. Tony.

Indeed, don't know what all the whining is about. Nothing more annoying than to go into another room to pick up your phone to just to find some silly forward on whatsapp. This is a huge leap forward. Especially for those of us that spend a lot of time online on PC. On 22 January 2015 at 17:47, Christopher Gitonga via skunkworks < skunkworks@lists.my.co.ke> wrote:

If I still need to use my phone then I am better of with bluestacks. Works fine for me even though on PC alone. #TeamKabambe On 1/22/15, John K. via skunkworks <skunkworks@lists.my.co.ke> wrote:

It solves a problem for some while remaining infuriating for others. I think I understand why they do this though. The idea is hat they don't want to store messages in an 'account' like any other chat app. Once you delete a message on your phone it is gone forever just like SMS. Ofvcourse I think Whatsapp can avail it to the authorities if need be but for all intents and purpose the message only exists in your phone and the recipient/ sender. This is unlike Viber which is just like Google chat or telegram or whatever other service. The "home" of the message is not your phone but the web.

These guys are just hiding the "highly valuable" API while trying to expand - or trying to. Access to almost a tenth of the world's population costs money! Hope they don't make a Yahoo! mistake; I remember a review of a Yahoo! employee crying how the giant fell right in front of his eyes from a small company doing exactly the same thing!
