For other apps (tiktok, manycam, whatsapp) it seems that bluestack still takes 640x480, but then rotates it by 90 degrees. So maybe the good option is adding portrait to manycam plus option to rotate video on output:

How can I install Whatsapp web app on Ubuntu? I found a similar question How to install WhatsApp?, but here I am asking for the WhatsApp desktop webapp so that I can directly access the application without opening a browser.

Best way I think is: . It asks to open your whatsapp in your mobile and let it to scan the codebars to the phone. So, simply open your whatsapp in mobile> select the option whatsapp web > focus your phone camera to the monitor where the browser shows a codebar. That s all. Then Browser opens your whatsapp in itself. Nothing to install . Easy

This is an old question but now I need to use WhatsApp in my Ubuntu environment, and I found this solution based on a third-party WhatsApp Linux Client called Whatsie. This client works for Debian 8, Ubuntu 16.04 LTS and Linux Mint 18. Whatsie is a simple but helpful wrapper for WhatsApp Web, available for Linux, Mac OS X and Windows.

General Notice: There is no official WhatsApp desktop app for Linux. That's why it is more secure to use one of your favorite browsers and create a web app using the official service. Third-party apps from non-trusted sources may flood you with ads, hijack your session or introduce a backdoor to your client. Even if they currently don't, you can't be sure in the future. ? Please do not use the "accepted" answer! ?

Web, the default Gnome browser (formerly known as epiphany), which would be my favorite, if someone fixes the cpu load issue. The WebApp feature is very advanced, e.g. you can configure cookies, tracking and ad blocking and even css style can be modified. Described in more detail here:

Brave, (Ungoogled-)Chromium, Chrome and Edge browser works exactly the same. No one is wondering, because under the hood they are quite similar. Go to the hamburger menu > More tools > Create shortcut and make sure you tick the checkbox "Open as window". This is also described here: -to-create-web-apps-for-the-brave-browser/Btw.: At time of writing Edge from flathub does not run on Fedora 38 using wayland.

The post with "most votes" is definitely overrated, because it is basically the same, explanined more complicated. Because in the past you had to create such .desktop files manually, which is no longer the case for browser shortcuts.
