URL: https://web.whatsapp.com
Browser / Version: Vivaldi 1.0.94.2
Operating System: Linux (Ubuntu 64-bit)
Problem type: Looks like the website has a bug.
Site owner: No

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Navigate to: https://web.whatsapp.com

Expected Behavior:
Should be able to use the web app.

Actual Behavior:
The app uses browser sniffing rather than feature detection.
The browser is blocked with a message saying "WhatsApp Web requires Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, or Opera". Vivaldi is Chromium-based so should be treated the same as Chrome and Opera.
