Using OGWhatsApp for Two WhatsApp Accounts
If you prefer using OG WhatsApp, here’s how you can set it up alongside the official WhatsApp:
- Before setting up OGWhatsApp, it is important to back up your data to avoid any potential loss.
- Go to Settings > Chats > Chat backup.
- Tap on “Back Up” to save your current conversations and media to Google Drive or your preferred backup location.
- Get OGWhatsApp from a reputable source to prevent malware, be sure the source is trustworthy.
- Follow the installation guidelines provided by the source to install OG WhatsApp on your smartphone.
- Enable “Unknown Sources” to allow the installation of apps from outside the Google Play Store.
- After installation, open OGWhatsApp.
- Establish a second WhatsApp account by registering same phone number you use for the official WhatsApp (or a different number if you have another one available).
- If you have a backup for this number, you can restore it during the setup process.
- You won’t need to delete the original app in order for this one to function alongside your current official WhatsApp account.
An alternate way to manage two WhatsApp accounts on one device is to use OGWhatsApp, especially if you prefer to use a tailored application rather than an app cloner from a third party.

Tips for Managing Two WhatsApp Accounts
Effective management of two WhatsApp accounts requires efficiency. The following advice will help you manage and get the most out of your dual-account setup:
- Set distinct vibrations or notification tones for every WhatsApp account to distinguish between them.
- Give each WhatsApp account a new name that makes it obvious what it is used for (e.g., personal, work).
- To suit your tastes, change the privacy settings for each account separately. To protect your privacy across accounts, limit who can see your profile photo, status updates, and last seen timestamps.
- Establish distinct chat folders for private and work-related discussions to maintain organization and prevent message blending.
- To protect chat records and media files, use cloud storage services or WhatsApp’s built-in backup option.
- Use WhatsApp Web on your desktop to access both accounts at once. To enable multitasking and effective communication management, log into each account using a different browser or incognito mode.
