Below, we explain how you can do it step by step so that you can switch between your whatsapp accounts without problems and in a simple way.
How to use two WhatsApp accounts on the same mobile?
If you have a Dual SIM mobileyou can use both SIM cards in WhatsApp or link a secondary account on a second device. This linked account option is similar to how it works WhatsApp Webwhere the main account remains on another mobile, but can be accessed from another device.
To set up a second WhatsApp account, go to the settings menu within the app, tap the down arrow icon next to your name, and select ‘Add an account’. Then you have to follow the usual setup steps, which include verify the phone number using a code.
To configure it, select the option ‘Pair as additional device’ or, if not available, access the three-dot menu on the home screen to enter the phone number. In the case of the linked accounta scan of QR code instead of a verification code to complete the setup.
Once both accounts are set up, you can manage them independently. Incoming message notifications will tell you which account they came fromand you will be able to see the chats of each account by using the menu and selecting ‘Switch account’. Thus, both accounts remain separate, allowing you much more organization of the chats.
