On your computer, open Google Messages for web at https://messages.google.com/web in a browser, like Chrome or Safari.  To pair with Messages for web automatically next time, check the box “Remember this computer.” If you don’t check the box, you can tap More.

Messages for web allows you to access your Messages conversation history from any web-enabled device, such as a PC or Android tablet. Like the mobile software, Messages for web requires a connection between your computer and your phone in order to send SMS messages, thus standard carrier rates apply.
Important: The QR code for Messages for web is unique to your computer and pairs the mobile app to that computer. You can pair your Messages account on multiple devices, but only one will be active at a time. When you open Messages for web on a computer, your conversations on any other computers or browser tabs will become inactive.
