How to install Whatsapp Messenger application on a Tablet with Android, so we can add our friends, as we were in a mobile.

The main problem we found when we install Whatsapp on a tablet we have no contacts, or native program to add, so to use it we are blocked. If you try to install an application on our Tablet contact as Go Contacts EX, we see that is not in the Market for the Tablet, so we will use a mobile intermediary.

With the simple steps that we describe in this tutorial, we will install whatsapp and we'll use it as it is used in mobile. Very important that you not required to have phone or tablet rooted. I mean, anyone can do it ordinary. In fact does not require installing paid apps, so this method is totally free!

Requirements to install Whatsapp on a Tablet:

Android phone and Tablet with Android
Internet

Steps to install Whatsapp on Tablet:

In mobile, install Go Contacts EX application (from ****** Play)
In mobile, install App Backup & Restore application (from ****** Play)
In mobile, run the application App Backup & Restore, go to the Installed tab and select the application and press Go Contacts EX Selected Apps Backup button. Effect is that you create an application apk file Go Contacts EX.
In mobile, within App Backup & Restore yet, go to the Archived tab, and let down your finger Go Contacts EX application. Select the option Send (Send) and select an email that we can see from the tablet. With this we have spent a installable file Go Contacts EX applying our tablet.
In the tablet, enter the email that we have sent the contacts application, and downloaded the file from the email. We execute and install the application.
In the tablet, we entered

http://www.whatsapp.com

and install Whatsapp application.
In the tablet, configure Whatsapp, placing our mobile number and entering the code we received in our Whatsapp SMS to activate.
Ready! We already have WhatsApp installed, just go to our application we Go Contacts EX, and start adding contacts. Clicking we start showing them the option to send messages by Whatsapp. Also from the same Whatsapp can press Menu button -> Contacts and add the contacts in Go Contacts EX application.

Hope I have not skipped any steps. With these was enough for me, I hope it does not cost much.

Yes, I know it. So on we also could use Line or Viber but Whatsapp is an app made for mobile devices with 3G built in, so many tablets pc doesn't have 3G and many people can't use this app on their devices, or spend a lot of money buying expensive tablets with 3G in order to use whatsapp.
It depends of the country where we lives, there are many countries using whatsapp as the first sms app.
All my friends uses Whatsapp for sms, and when my phone crashes the only way to contact with all of them was install whatsapp on my wifi tablet.
If you use Viber, ok. Line is another very good app too.
Best regards.

I had no problem for install it on my wifi only tablet.
Some tablets doesn't support this kind of app : Too Heavy
Most of the chinese tablets you see arround for 50€ won't do the job , they are only good for some rare small app's and only one at the time.

The more strange with this tablets is that they can play 1080P videos without any problems but cannon manage a Candy Crush or Skype and even some games of 500K are slow. Just really good for play kids game ( memory cards, flappy bird ... )

I use whats app and I do not have it connect with 3g, only allow it to use wifi that is the purpose of the app free messages and photo's and short vids.
from about December this year it will cost you 99 cents for a year.
And it needs a hack to work on l tablets.

It si very easy. this is a second explanation in order to make it easiest the WhatsApp table instalation.
.
[NOTE]: According to the comments of some users we realized that does not work 100% of the tablets.
Install WhatsApp on an Android tablet

The process is very simple. We just need a valid phone number and we can use. A good example would be our smartphone. In fact, I used my personal smartphone.Or you can get a prepaid sim in order to get a different telephone number because if you install whatsapp with the same telephone number as your smartphone you will lose you smartphone whatsapp. It better be another phone number. The important thing is that mobile can receive calls and SMS. Of course we also need a tablet. The steps are:
1. Download WhatsApp from the web application (I recommend accessed directly from the tablet). Don't download app from ****** PlayStore.
2. Install the application and run.
3.Welcome to WhatsApp! Smartphone Record the number in question.
4. Will receive an SMS with a code.
5. Returned to the tablet and after waiting a while you will see that the "automatic detection of a SMS" does not work.
It may take several minutes to finally say it does not work. Do not worry, you are normal. Upon failure, WhatsApp ask if you want to call us to give us the code. We accept.

WhatsApp We ask that you call us. . Expect to call us and answer the call. Now we just have to write down the number that tells us the lady.

We accept Maryland call number and we aim to be told. . Introduce this code into your tablet and hope.

Bravo! WhatsApp on my tablet. Now you can enjoy WhatsApp on your tablet!

Some additions to the tutorial:

1) The phone whose number we must own just as able to receive calls and SMS, ie worth ANY, does not have to be a smartphone.

2) Since there is no address book program that can read, the process is a bit confusing: you must first connect to the whatsapp account gmail or ******, and then we can go adding contacts manually (with a name and phone number is enough, you can leave all other fields blank). All phone numbers must be entered in the international format ie: + (country code) phone number. You can use a contacts app as gocontact available at ****** play store.

3) No 3G, you can only operate where you may have a wifi available, of course.

4) Oh, and if you try to install from the store will not let you play because they say that the "device is not compatible". Make use the Android web browser to go to the web page of the application, and dischargeable from there. Do not give problems.

Best regards.

Re: Free messages. Install Whatsapp in a tablet without 3G

Once you use your smart phone number for the tablet you will not be able to use your smart phone for whatsapp it will recognise it is not your phone that is registered,
so that is out of the question.
get a free sim card and use that number, open a new mail account at whoever you want, then you are ready to go use the sim card number.
Then you can throw the card away .
load the software when it can not connect to your phone it will send the code to your new mail address, open the app it will ask for the code enter the code and you will be up and running, if you make a mistake do not worry just apply for a new code they will resend it to you,

This week WhatsApp introduced a controversial new feature – two blue ticks that indicate when a message has actually been read by the recipient. This has caused a huge uproar, but some people don't even know what to make of the various marks in Whats App.
