But did you know that you can set up dual WhatsApp accounts, and use them both on the same phone? If you've ever wondered how to install two WhatsApp accounts on one phone, then you've come to the right place. There are a few different ways to do this, and some phone-makers are offering this as a built in feature. In other cases, you'll have to resort to third-party apps instead, but it's actually pretty easy to run two WhatsApp accounts on one Android phone. Sorry iPhone users, you are out of luck without resorting to the kind of methods we wouldn’t recommend.

If you have a dual-SIM phone though, then the next step should be to check your settings, because it's quite possible that the manufacturer has already created settings or dual WhatsApp.
