Dual WhatsApp with GB WhatsApp: Setup Guide
Set up two WhatsApp accounts on one Android phone using GB WhatsApp alongside the official app. Below we cover the why, the how and the things to watch out for.
Why dual accounts?
Many people want to keep work and personal chats apart without carrying two phones. Because GB WhatsApp uses a different package name, it installs next to the official app.
Setup steps
- Keep official WhatsApp on your first number.
- Download and install GB WhatsApp.
- Open it and verify your second number.
- Set a different theme or icon so you can tell the apps apart.
Things to know
Each number can only be active in one app at a time. Notifications come from two separate apps, so customize their tones. Back up each app separately.
Before you start
Menu names can differ slightly between builds. If you cannot find an option, look in the mod settings under Privacy, Chats or Universal.
