Different Whatsapp accounts on KEY2 Dual-SIM

Hi
i ready that its possible to set up 2 whatsupp accounts on bb key2 dual sim- is it really possible? i have key2 and one account for one of 2 numbers, can anyone help ? thanks

Yes you can as far as you have November onwards update installed on your phone.

Just long press on Whatsapp icon and you would see three options appearing on the top of the screen, App Info, Clone and Uninstall. You will just then need to drag the icon to the middle option to clone Whatsapp.

After that you can name the cloned version of Whatsapp and use it with second number. If you don't have the update yet, then you either have to wait or just get Whatsapp Business from Google PlayStore.

There are other ways to clone apps too. Or you can create a second profile in the phone and use different accounts.

thanks a lot
i have had my whatsup cloned on other phones also, but i tlooked like something unoficcial, but this one on our key2 as far as i understand is like original or official i dont know how to call it :) i will try , so normal update? does it depend on mobile operators? or its same all over the worrld?

Yes it's a normal update. As soon as you receive an update for your variant for December security fixes, you'll get the feature.
You can also try to install updates using autoloaders but at your own risk. Check out the sticky thread on autoloaders. I'm sure if you post there, someone will guide you.

Yep but not every body got it

yes, it worked, thanks) but seems its not only blackberry key 2, its for all androids

Slightly related question: if I install whatsapp on sim2 on my dual sim keyone will my primary number (sim1) be 'invisible' to whatsapp? also is there any way to use whatsapp as a standalone app ( I do NOT want to share all my contacts with FB/whatsapp, I only want to use it for 3-4 contacts who won't install bbm)
