Dual WhatsApp with GB WhatsApp: Setup Guide
Set up two WhatsApp accounts on one Android phone using GB WhatsApp alongside the official app. This guide walks you through it step by step.
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.
Stay safe
Always keep a fresh local backup before changing settings or updating, and remember that GB WhatsApp is unofficial.
