Chosen Solution

i’d like to setup my nexus7 2013 to use whatsapp, i’ve tried a routine that uses text + with no results. thanks for any help.

If you do not have an existing text plan, you cannot use WhatsApp. On the initial set up, WhatsApp needs to send you a verification text. My suggestion is to use Google Voice, and not ‘port in’ your phone number. You would have a secondary phone number that can be access everywhere there is Internet access.
