WhatsApp associates one number to one device and so even if you have a dual-SIM you can associate only one number to the official WhatsApp app. But if you use Lenovo K3 Note, you are in for a surprise. You can operate two numbers on WhatsApp on this Smartphone, thanks to the SecureZone feature that comes with the phone. The SecureZone allows to run two accounts of any app to be run on the single device – one on the open zone and the other on the SecureZone, a setting that needs to be configured and set to run. If you add a WhatsApp on the secure zone, it allows you to associate another number here, in addition to the WhatsApp you might have in the open zone associated to another number. Isn’t that cool? No rooting of the device, no third party untrusted app needed here. It’s simple and easy to setup. Do see our video on how to run two WhatsApp on the Lenovo K3 Note https://youtu.be/ylfYtKUBOPY]]>

Step 1: Open https://web.whatsapp.com/ in Google Chrome. Step 2: You will see a QR code on the web page, that you need to scan with your phone to log in. Step 3: So how to scan the code? Go to WhatsApp and look for WhatsApp Web. The option is found in Menu of WhatsApp. If you are a BlackBerry 10 user, a swipe down from top of the app screen takes you to “WhatsApp Web”. Tap on it and scan the QR code opened on your computer. Step 4: WhatsApp will sync messages between the phone and browser. WhatsApp for Web is simply an extension of your phone. So the messages are stored only on your phone and the web browser simply mirros the content. Step 5: You can now start a new chat right from your computer. Your phone needs to stay connected to the Internet for WhatsApp to work on your desktop. WhatsApp for Web also allows users to turn on desktop notifications right from their browser so that even when your browser is minimised you get alerts for any new messages. One possible downside with WhatsApp for Web is that it allows only one Web session at a time. ]]>

Now serving 600,000,000 monthly active users. Yes, active and registered are very different types of numbers… — jan koum (@jankoum) August 25, 2014 WhatsApp is clearly the undisputed leader now followed by Tencent’s WeChat with 438 million active users, and Viber with 100 million active users. It must be noted most of the rival messaging apps stick to mentioning their registered users and refrain from letting know the active users. The emerging markers are adding vigorously to the WhatsApp numbers with India playing an important role. In April, the active users numbers hover around 40 million in India and four months down, it has shot up to 60 millions. It’s exciting days for WhatsApp to the dismay of telecom operators who are loosing out on their SMS services. ]]>
