Hye… izit possible use same account in 2device???
how abot recieve the massages??? Izit will recieve in both device the same msges???
Nevil Patel says
No, It is not possible. You can't synchronize same whatsapp accounts if you are using whatsapp application in both smartphones or tablets.
But Possible is that you can use http://web.whatsapp.com (Whatsapp web client) where you can synchronize your whatsapp account which you are using in smartphones or tablets.

After the latest update my whatsapp wouldn't work anymore it told me to update it so i did! Which then brought me to the playstore page which often says this playstore version isn't available on ur device & saying go to the playstore & uninstall reinstall i tried doing that several times but still the same message im on a android galaxy tab 2 it also said that with the same version in 1mobile market that this version was incompatible with my device. After trying numerous numbers of times to get my app back i searched n searched for a tablet version i could maybe install reinstall to only be redirected back to the same newer version in playstore then come upon your web/link n then i tried to install it from here & to my success it worked!

Nevil Patel says
What problem you are facing? Please post error message here.
Gradey says
I have downloaded the app and it’s installed. I don’t currently have a sim or a mobile number as I’m travelling. Is there a way of using whatsapp without having to verify a number, either through text or call verification?
Or can you recommend another app thay doesn’t require phone verification that enables me to send voice clips to my friends, so practically a phone app just like whatsapp but without needed a phone number?
Thanks 🙂
