@Joemackley
Now that we have taken a closer look it looks like the beta link is full. Can you send an official or whatsapp link?

Unfortunately there's no direct download as of right now, just a testflight beta, however you can read the official support page here about the new whatsapp desktop: https://faq.whatsapp.com/545358030455627/?locale=en_GB

The link on the support page just goes to testflight, so there's still currently no direct download

@Joemackley Used the FAQ link as the beta link so that people get the most up-to-date link

Update is now live on the site!
