WhatsApp, earlier this week, released a major update to its business app. The update that was aimed at making it easier for users to shop online includes a feature, which enables users of WhatsApp's Business apps to create and manage their business catalogs using WhatsApp Web or the company's desktop-based app.

Earlier, users of WhatsApp's Business apps, both Android and iOS, could create and manage their product catalogs using the company's mobile app. Now, the Facebook-owned company is expanding this feature to the web and its desktop app.

“Since many businesses manage their inventory from a computer, this new option will make it quick and easy to add new items or services so their customers know what's available. This will be extremely helpful for businesses with big inventories like a restaurant or clothing store so they can manage their catalog from a bigger screen,” the company explained in a blog post.
