    Hi, just a quick question.

    I've got 2 phones (my irish number and a uk one cos i'm over in london studying at the minute)

    Just wondering if its possible to add two numbers to the whatsapp so that people who have either of my numbers can see if i'm using the app too.

    thanks.

    Hi, as far as I know this is not possible but there are a small few work arounds

    1. Get android on your pc -

    I have youwave and installed whatsapp on that and it works perfectly... Youwave is only free for a 7 day trial period but you can constantly uninstall/reinstall it and keep availing of the 7 day trial.

    You might also consider partitioning your laptops hard drive and dual-booting your laptop with android and get whatsapp that way

    2. Get a second (cheap) android phone.
    The likes of the samsung europa or vodafone smart and just take the sim card out.

    3. iPod touch/ipad/Android tablet/philips gogear3 - ***not too sure if these work***
    Find whatsapp on either market and use it that way

    Thanks a million for the suggestions, but i actually do have 2 android phones. The problem is i cant use the internet via my irish sim when i'm out of the house cos its too expensive and dual booting my laptop with android also seems like a lot of trouble just for one app. Also, that also has the same problem that i can only get the messages when i'm at home.

    I was just wondering if there was a way to get messages sent from both accounts to one fone.

    Have you tried downloading it from the whatsapp download site twice with the same phone? 2 similar apps on one phone
