How to Use Multiple WhatsApp Accounts on Your Android device
WhatsApp is the most widely used messaging service between mobiles. For many users WhatsApp has become the alternative for SMS text messages. This app saved many users from paying bills for their text messages. Not only text messages but users can also send images and videos.
This cross platform app is very widely used in most of the mobiles.
So people having dual sim android mobiles want to use dual WhatsApp accounts which can operate with two different numbers. So let us get started how to use this.
Requirements:
1) Rooted Phone - Yes your phone should be rooted.
2) Switch me Multiple accounts app
3)WhatsApp
A rooted mobile is must required for this trick to work. If you are not aware about rooting or how to root your mobile, drop me an email with your device name and model number. I will b glad to help you with that.
Now after your device is rooted, install Switch me Multiple accounts on your mobile. Open the app and create an admin profile first. This profile has access to all apps, files and folders. Now create another profile with any name of your choice (eg: user).
Now open the switch me app and switch to user account. This will reboot your phone and may take a little longer time. Don't panic. Now after the mobile is restarted, your mobile will ask for the basic settings which you see while you use your android mobile for the first time. It will ask you to enter gmail id. Add the id which is not in use with your admin profile so that you will not have conflicts in play store as some of the apps may show as "installed" even though they are not installed.
Open play store and install WhatsApp. Register it with another number you want to use it and bingo! Now you can use two different WhatsApp accounts on the same device.
NOTE: You cannot run both profiles at the same time. You have to switch between profiles to use both.
