I have WhatsApp on both my 14.04 Ubuntu laptop and my Samsung Android Phone. How can I send messages from the computer using the contacts fro phone? I want to invite my phone contacts in Russia to connect with me on WhatsApp, but the phone cannot write Russian; the laptop can. So, I want to use WhatsApp on the laptop to connect with these friends. How can that be done?

Hi Mogens

I recommend that you ask the WhatsApp support team about this issue.
