Whatsapp Desktop for OS 10.15.7

I'm using a MacBook Pro mid 2012 with Catalina 10.15.7 and the latest version of Whatsapp desktop vers 2.23.24.80 can't be installed on this OS.

Anyone know which version of Whatsapp Desktop will work ?

It is possible to find earlier versions on the internet but I'm trying to avoid downloading and trying dozens of versions to find the latest one that will work ?

A wok around is to use the web version but it is a bit more cumbersome than the Desktop version

Thank you , Pat

Same problem here, when you download an older version the program automatically makes the update installing it and you can't run it... I'm using Catalina 10.15.7... Anyone has a solution?

Got the solution to stop the program from updating automatically when it opens ! You have to go to system preferences then software update, then Advanced and uncheck the checkbox check for updates. You can now download an older version of whatsapp and when you install it it will no longer automatically download the update.

Hello everyone. I have a MacBook Pro 15' Mid 2014 Catalina 10.15.7.

And I think I found the solution to our problem, the truth is I don't completely understand what I did, I use Chrome and while I was using WhatsApp Web, a download icon appeared on the right side of the Addres Bar, I selected it and then apparently I downloaded as a WhatsApp Web extension/app and now I have like a Whatsapp Web app its not a tab and at the moment it works well for me. I hope it helps you! 🙂
