How to make a duplicate of WhatsApp on another device - in detail?

To create a duplicate of WhatsApp on another device, you need to follow these detailed steps:

  1. Backup Your WhatsApp Data:

    • Open WhatsApp on your primary device.
    • Navigate to Settings > Chats.
    • Select Chat Backup. This will back up your chats, photos, videos, and voice messages to Google Drive or iCloud, depending on your operating system. Ensure you have a stable internet connection for this process.
  2. Uninstall WhatsApp:

    • After the backup is complete, uninstall WhatsApp from your primary device. This step is crucial because WhatsApp does not allow simultaneous use of the same account on multiple devices.
  3. Install WhatsApp on Your Secondary Device:

  4. Restore Your Backup:

    • Open WhatsApp on your secondary device.
    • Follow the initial setup prompts to enter your phone number.
    • When prompted, verify your phone number using the verification code sent via SMS.
    • After verifying, you will be asked if you want to restore your backup from Google Drive or iCloud. Select Restore.
  5. Wait for the Restoration Process:

    • The restoration process may take some time depending on the size of your backup and the speed of your internet connection. Ensure that your device remains connected to the internet during this period.
  6. Complete the Setup:

    • Once the restoration is complete, you will see a progress bar indicating the transfer of your media files (photos, videos, etc.). This process may also take some time.
    • After all media has been transferred, you can start using WhatsApp on your secondary device with all your chat history and media intact.

By following these steps, you successfully create a duplicate of WhatsApp on another device while ensuring that your data is safely backed up and restored.
