Unfortunately you can not make video calls from Whatsapp on your PC. Though you can access Whatsapp on your PC for text chat via Whatsapp web URL, but still you will not get an option for video or even audio calling there. May be in near future. Whatsapp will introduce this feature. Just wait till then.
But you can install Android emulators like “YouWave”, “BlueStacks” etc and run whatsapp in the emulator and make video calls. Make sure to allow the emulator to use your laptop’s webcam and mic.
WhatsApp Web allows the users to operate WhatsApp through their computers and laptops. As of now, the web version of WhatsApp only caters to messaging. So, if you are one of those who wish to make the video call on their desk devices other than the small screens of smartphones, there are other ways to do so. Several third party emulators, that is nothing but a hardware or software that makes the host system act like another computing system, called the guest, are available to facilitate this.
- Download the latest version of WhatsApp
- Install an Android emulator. Some popular ones are Bluestack, Nox player or YouWave.
- Launch the emulator and configure the software by following the instructions that pop up in the screen.
- Give the emulator access to you laptops webcam and mic.
- Open Whats via the emulator to make WhatsApp video calls
