However, some people need to use WhatsApp on two different phones. And with this they end up frustrated, because the choice is not there. But TechTudo has published a tutorial for circumventing this rule. That is, by following the steps step by step, a person can use the messenger on more than one device.
Continue reading this article to check out the full tutorial and learn how to use the messenger on your mobile devices.
WhatsApp on two devices? With this trick it is possible!
First of all, it is important to point out a few things. The trick used is not official. Therefore, WhatsApp does not recommend that the user do this, as there may be incompatibilities between devices, which increases the risk of errors and other problems. Moreover, the social network has not yet developed a method that makes this practice possible on more than one phone.
Another important point is that the user needs to have at least one Android cell phone to perform the trick. The device must be primary. This means that if you have an iPhone, and its operating system is IOS, there is no way to do the trick. Finally, the person will need to change some settings on their cell phone before starting the tutorial. However, let’s go step by step to access the same messaging account on two different devices.
Learn how to get Messenger on two cell phones
Most likely, you have already opened or seen someone using WhatsApp on your computer or tablet. This practice is possible, because the messenger sends a QR code to the original device. When the code is read, the messenger opens on the other device. The trick, then, is to make the app think the second phone is a tablet.

In this way, the first thing to do is to get the original cell phone, which must be Android. Access the Settings menu and then choose the Phone option. Then click on Software information and finally on Build number. After that, on the System tab, in the settings, it will be necessary to change the screen width of the device to 600.
Once this is done, it is necessary to install WhatsApp on the other device, which can be Android or iPhone. In this way, you just need to follow the standard procedure to open the messenger on the secondary devices. That is, through the QR code available on the first cell phone. This way the same number can be used but on different devices.
Beware of mistakes that can arise with practice.
