While it's a big step forward, I was really hoping for something cloud-based, where both your pc and phone are syncing to something stored in the cloud. CMIIW, but here all it's doing is your browser is reading from your phone.
So although I'm very excited to finally be able to use whatsapp on my phone and pc simultaneously, I'm kinda disappointed with the implementation.

If you go to a group you are in and hit your name in the list of members you should be able to chat yourself.

Make sure to close the app in the task manager, or just restart the phone
