Key points
- On this computer, messages are sent only while WhatsApp Web is open in your browser.
- Always on runs your WhatsApp in the Blueticks cloud instead of your browser, so messages go out with your computer off.
- On Android, Linked devices is in the ⋮ menu.
- The QR code refreshes automatically, so there is no need to reload.
- Every connection is listed on WhatsApp Connections in your account, with its status.
- Not sure? Start free on this computer and switch to always on whenever you need it.
Full transcript
Blueticks sends from the WhatsApp number you already use. There are two ways to connect it. Here's how to pick.
Option one: on this computer. It's free. Add Blueticks to Chrome, and open WhatsApp Web. If it shows a QR code, scan it once with your phone. When your chats appear, you're connected.
The one rule: messages go out only while WhatsApp Web is open in your browser.
Option two: always on. Your WhatsApp runs in the Blueticks cloud instead of your browser, so messages still go out with your computer off.
It's part of Pro, and you can try it free for seven days. No card needed.
Click Create my always-on connection. Then on your phone, open WhatsApp, tap Settings, Linked devices, Link a device, and point it at the code. Rather not scan? Link with your phone number instead.
Every connection shows up on the Connections page, with its status.
Not sure? Start free on this computer, and switch to always on whenever you need it.
Connect your WhatsApp at app.blueticks.co.
