A report by WABetaInfo states that users who wish to use the beta version of WhatsApp for Mac can simply link the account on their Android phones or iPhones by scanning the QR code on their MacBook. Owing to the fact that this is a beta rollout, many features might not work properly for everyone yet. In addition, MacBooks with macOS11 Big Sur and Intel laptops with Mac Catalyst will also support the app. All MacBooks that are running on M1, M1 Pro, M1 Max, M1 Ultra, M2, ‌M2‌ Pro, and ‌M2‌ Max chipsets will be able to run the WhatsApp native app. WhatsApp reportedly seems to have built the app in sync with what's available on WhatsApp for iOS. Users can download the dmg file of WhatsApp for Mac on the official website. Meta-owned WhatsApp rolled out the beta version of its native app for macOS on January 24. But now, it finally appears that WhatsApp is taking MacBook functionality more seriously.

I apologise for that pun, it was years behind - just like WhatsApp support for Apple's MacBook laptops.
