- viraptor 8y agoThat's not the case. You don't even need a sim card for WhatsApp.
- icebraining 8y agoCan confirm, I used to run it on a WiFi-only tablet, having confirmed the number of my featurephone (which didn't have WhatsApp at all).
- OJFord 8y agoYou can't login (on Android at least) without receiving a text message with a verification code.
- viraptor 8y agoThat doesn't mean the process depends on a sim card. You can send the code to any number which can receive texts. (including landlines in many cases)
- OJFord 8y agoNo you can't, I tried that, it doesn't let you enter the code yourself, it requires permission to read SMS, and then reads the received verification code itself.
- tyfon 8y agoI just swapped sim card since I switched provider, same with my wife and we didn't have any resets. I have about 15 people on signal an I've seen a reset once or twice maybe in total.
- idlewords 8y agoMy bad, I'm sorry to misinform people!
