Hi,

I cannot find this info in the doc, but is it possible to use whatsapp-purple to connect to whatsapp, while keeping my phone connected as well? I thought whatsapp enforced a one-device only policy, meaning that only one device could be connected to whatsapp (excepted if using whatsapp web).

At least, I had troubles with the cli clients, which were due to this and it was mentionned in the FAQ.

Thanks!

No. whatsapp-purple acts like a client on a phone. The limitation of one connected device is enforced by WhatsApp. There are probably other reasons as well (e.g. protcol specification).

Ok. Maybe adding this in the FAQ might be useful. Thanks for the answer!
