Want
to use one whatsapp account with two different phones?It will be fun
doing this.But don’t try to snoop anyone.One of the downsides of
WhatsApp is that it every WhatsApp account is associated with a single
phone number making its use limited to one phone at a time. Because the
WhatsApp app on your phone periodically checks for an active phone
number and if it doesn’t find a match, it will prompt you to re-verify
to use it again. Therefore, multi-phone use of the same WhatsApp account
on multiple phones usually doesn’t work. But there is a simple
workaround.
Even though it is not the most elegant of solutions, it works. And it only needs an active internet connection on the second phone and functions even without a SIM card.

Use One WhatsApp Account On Two Different Phones
STEPS TO DO THIS:
1. Open the Web browser on the second phone that you want to also use WhatsApp on and go to web.whatsapp.com.
2.
On the mobile browser, it will automatically redirect you to the
WhatsApp home page. From the browser options, choose “Request desktop
site” (where you find this could vary from browser to browser) and it
will then open up the desired Web page with a QR code displayed
prominently.
3.
On the phone that has WhatsApp installed and running, go to
options/settings and choose “WhatsApp Web” (If you are already using
WhatsApp Web on any other browser, you will have to log out before
proceeding). It will fire up the QR scanner.
The
catch is that you can use this method to use WhatsApp on only one
additional device (other than the primary phone on which WhatsApp is
installed) and to use on another device, you will have to log out from
one.
Also WhatsApp Web isn’t a full-feature replacement for the installed version of WhatsApp. You wouldn’t get notifications and the interface isn’t optimised for mobile use. You might want to switch to landscape to for a fuller view.
