To run whatsapp on your PC, you have to download an android programm into your personal computer.
This has to be done before you download the Whatsapp application.
We need this programm to make use of Whatsapp, because this programm acts like it is your mobile phone.
The programm is an android emulator. there are many android emulator but blustacks is recommended. You can download This application here: http://bluestacks.com/

We did recommend “Youwave” in the past. Although it works fine it is limited by a 7 day trial period.
When you dont mind paying after several days or you just want to check the trial out.
Youwave is downloadable here: http://youwave.com/download.html
Whatsapp on your android application
When you have installed one of the android applications, we need to get Whatsapp installed in this application.
I will explain how to this for both applications from step 1.
For Bluestacks users. After you start Bluestacks and it is loaded , simply go to the search line and type in Whatsapp and download it.
It will appear among the other apps which are preinstalled.
For Youwave users. The easiest way to do this is to use the Youwave application itself for it.
So we open and start Youwave. Click on view on top and click on online content.
We can see the Whatsapp icon beneath the online apps (click and run ). Click on it and run it.
This will download Whatsapp and place it in your Youwave. After it is done you can see the icon on the home page of Youwave.
You also can download and install Whatsapp with the browser of Youwave going to this site:
whatsapp.com/android
How to setup Whatsapp on your pc
After the Whatsapp application is installed and you run it, it will asks for your personal details.
You have to fill it in and keep your phone in the near area. The number you fill in has to be correct.
You even can use your home phone instead of a mobile phone.
First you will get a text message from Whatsapp with a 3 digit number.
The install screen of Whatsapp will ask you to click on “call me”.
When u click on “call me”, an automatic call is made to your phone number.
A voice will tell you the same 3 digit number as the number they send you by text message. Fill in this number.
Last step is to fill in your name or nickname. Verification is complete and you are ready to use Whatsapp.
Add contacts and whatsapp in use
To use whatsapp go back to your home screen of youwave or bluestack.
For Bluestack users
Just open your whatsapp application and click on the black menu button on the bottom left.
When you click on it you see contacts in the list. Click on it and add contacts.
After adding contacts, you can just click on your contacts to chat with them via whatsapp.
Here is a very usefull video, which shows all steps.
