Now go to the official WhatsApp Messenger download page, which will display a QR code and download it on your device. Open WhatsApp with the phone that has a SIM card, then go to the settings in the top right corner, choose ‘WhatsApp Web’ and scan the QR code on the SIM-less device. It will now show all your conversations and contacts on the device without a SIM, and you can use WhatsApp in the same way as before.
