You'd install it on the server, so it would need your WhatsApp credentials and whatnot, at least that's how other bridges work.

Ah, okay. I think I understand now. So, I would have to host a server to do that then I assume?

Thank you!

If you want to be in control of the server and bridges yourself, yes - you'd have to do that.

If not, you can just use a service like beeper
