Connect WhatsApp with a code, no QR scan
Generate a pairing code and type it on your phone to connect the number, with nothing to scan.
Create my accountHow it was before
In the dashboard, a number could only be connected through the QR code.
How it works now
You can now also connect with a pairing code. The dashboard shows the code with a 2-minute timer and a progress bar, and tells you when it expires so you can generate another one.
What you gain
- Connect without scanning when the QR code is inconvenient
- A timer with a progress bar
- A clear notice when the code expires
When it helps
When you are on the same phone where WhatsApp is installed or when the QR code does not scan well.
How it works
- You choose to connect with a code
- The dashboard shows the code, with a 2-minute timer
- You type the code in WhatsApp on your phone
- If it expires, just generate a new one
