    Since when did you need to scan a QR code to read your text messages on a desktop? I’ve never had to do anything like that.

        Why would you need to “pair” something that’s over the web? Just log into your Google account and view the messages through Hangouts. Last I checked, it still works.

          I just downloaded Hangouts and it doesn’t open (at least the app).

          Hangouts and Google messages are very different. One notable difference is that Google Messages still exists.

      That’s how I get WhatsApp on a desktop browser, have done for years. Sometimes I’m sending a photo that’s only on the hard drive. Also it’s easier to type.
