Use Whatsapp from your Laptop Using BlueStacks App Player


BlueStacks App Player lets you run apps from your phone fast and full screen on Mac and Windows.

Over 5 million people around the world use top apps like Angry Birds Space, Kik Messenger, Where's My Water and more on their laptops with BlueStacks. It took 10 engineers two years to build the complex "LayerCake" technology that enables this to happen – but you get to experience it free while in beta. 



I Googled  about some way to use whatsapp on pc and  I found some blogs showing how to Use whatsapp using BlueStacks App player. Those (See references below) are really Nice blogs/posts, But it doesn't mean that I should not write blog about same topic ri8? :)
So here it is...

Requirements : You should have a Mobile No.(This should be real because you will get verification message on that number).  This number should not  be associated to whatsapp in any other device. This means you can not use same whatsapp account on your smartphone and on your laptops/other devices


So, to use Whatsapp on your laptop, go through following steps :



1) Download BlueStacks App Player. Link : Click Here

2) Install the software.  next->next-> I agree-> ok thing... :p




















3) There is search button on home screen of Bluestack app player,
     Search for  Whatsapp.

     You will find link to play shop page. Click on that
     (You may be asked to setup google play account. Do it)
    Alternatively you can use 1Mobile Market also it is similar to Play shop
















4) Download whatsapp and Install it , Just like you do in smartphone






















5) Launch Whatsapp

6) you will be asked to give mobile number now.



















7) Then a verification code will be send to your  number via message.

8) whatsapp application will try to automatically verify that code, but certainly it will be failed. After the timer is completed, you will be able to manually enter the verification code.

 Done !!!


Now you can just add your friends contacts and add them in whatsapp,,, 
Njoy :) :)



Wait...,
This Blog was basically written to show you that how you can use whatsapp on your pc/laptop.But the scope of BlueStack App player is not limited to this app only...

you can run any Android application,game from play shop on this app player !!!
this is same as smartphone in your laptop.

I Hope this is helpful.
Your comments are always welcome.
