Users with the latest version of WhatsApp need to go to Settings with the app and select WhatsApp Web. Here are two screenshots provided by Reddit user vmax77:

By allowing users on the web to respond to WhatsApp chats from their iPhone, it similarly mirrors how OS X users can reply to iMessages on their Macs.
