The messaging application WhatsApp has encountered a major problem with the proliferation of smartphones or mobiles with dual SIM card: the service does not allow you to maintain two active accounts on the same mobile. Or, at least, it does not allow it without using unofficial applications or without being a very advanced user who knows how to put the mobile in mode root (something impossible for most mortals). However, there is a small trick so that the user can carry two active WhatsApp accounts on the same mobile , even when you do not have a terminal with dual SIM cardRead on if you're interested in learning how to do it.
It is about using the service WhatsApp Web, or what is the same, the version of WhatsApp for computers, but on mobile. In this way, the user can use his own application WhatsApp for one of the accounts, and the service WhatsApp Webthrough the Internet browser for the other. Of course, it is necessary to carry out some previous steps and keep a second mobile constantly active.
The first thing is to have two active cell phones, with SIM, battery and Internet connection And, of course, with WhatsApp One of them can stay at home, connected to the Internet and to the current (charging its battery) if you want to ensure its operation throughout the day.The other will be the mobile that the user carries with the two accounts of WhatsApp Now it's time to configure everything.
On the mobile that you are going to take with you, you only have to use the browser Google Chrome to access the service pageWhatsApp Web Of course, it is necessary to display the menu of this browser and select the option View as on the computerWith this, the QR code necessary to activate the messaging service in the browser is displayed on the screen.
The next step is to use the other mobile, which will stay at home or in a safe place. In it, you access WhatsApp and the main screen menu opens, where you click on the option WhatsApp Web Thus, the terminal's camera is activated to scan the QR code available on the screen of the other mobile.
When scanning, WhatsApp Web is activated on the mobile that the user is going to take with him. That is, there are already two WhatsApp accounts on the same mobile. Through the browser it is possible to see all the conversations of the second mobile updated and available to answer any message. But if you want to jump to the other user account, just open the WhatsApp application as usual.
Now, this little trick has its failures or requirements The most basic is to keep the mobile that stays at home withbattery and coverage to be able to have active the service of WhatsApp Web And this service is a mere reflection of what happens in the terminal. If it does not have coverage, the messages will not reach the browser.Another problem is not receiving Push notifications or alerts on the mobile, since the browser Google Chrome does not have them when you exit the application. Along with all this, we must bear in mind that WhatsApp Web is not as good as the messaging application itself.
The good thing is that the user only has to carry a mobile phone with them to carry two WhatsApp accounts, without having to have a device with double SIM or be user root, or other processes that jeopardize the guarantee and the useful life of the mobile. Simply log in actively to Google Chrome to see if there are new messages to read.
In short, a complete utility for users who do not want to carry two terminals with them, or who have two WhatsApp accounts without having from a mobile with dual SIM.
