How To Use Status Feature On Whatsapp Web

WhatsApp introduced the Snapchat-like Story concept with the name Status a while ago. This feature initially thought of as a copy of Snapchat, has been finally accepted by users. Statuses are undoubtedly a great platform for sharing your thoughts and images with only those you choose to. However, users were annoyed with WhatsApp for not introducing this Status feature in WhatsApp Web for PC. WhatsApp Status has since been added to WhatsApp Web but users are not entirely happy yet. There are some restrictions to the feature as opposed to the mobile version.
