WhatsApp has definitely lessened the use of SMS messaging and has eased the lives of a lot of users. It’s very easy to send unlimited messages, sharing photos, videos, sharing music just in a few taps using WiFi or 3G on your device with WhatsApp.
WhatsApp is available for free in the Google Play Store. You can download it and install it on your Android or iOS device and start chatting with your friends and family for hours without any cost. But, in order to proceed with WhatsApp verification, you will need a SIM card in your device as WhatsApp will use your number to activate your profile after verification.
Since there is a number of devices available around powered with Android, these devices include various smartphones, tablets, cameras, etc. Android-powered tablets are further divided into 3G, LTE, and WiFi models. So, you got a hefty list to choose from. A Tablet with 3G support will let you use a SIM card, you will be able to dial calls, send text messages, use Viber and other such social chat apps including WhatsApp as well, but a WiFi tablet will not let you use a SIM card, thus, you won’t be able to do any SIM verification related activity.
So you got a Tablet with no 3G support but WiFi and you’re willing to get WhatsApp on it? Well, as mentioned above, without a sim card in your device you won’t be able to verify it and you will start feeling trapped having an awesome device but no social chat app like WhatsApp. Well, there’s no need to ponder about it anymore. We have the complete solution to your worry. In the following post, we will go through a method that will let you install WhatsApp on your WiFi tablet. Also, this tutorial is only for Android tablets.

@disqus_8rOKGY41K0:disqus the link above is the direct download link, please click it properly. You shouldn't face any such problems.
I tried doing exactly what you posted for installing WhatsApp on my 'android wifi only' tablet. Did not work. Contacts don't get pulled in from the phone number I gave. Does it have to be a smart phone? Mine is not. But can receive text messages. Do I need another App for contacts management? Your help will be appreciated.
@radhikadarsi:disqus You can transfer contacts between devices using VCF file. You can also add contacts manually in your tablet, those should appear in WhatsApp as well as I can see it working on my tab. You may try re-installing whatsapp on your tab again
I can add my contacts in to my android tablet, but into which program? How will I sync this contact list to WhatsApp?
Thanks
Radhika
@radhikadarsi:disqus there's a default contacts application in the tablets. You can use that for this purpose.
It works! It's awesome. Thank you
It Works Perfectly! All syncronized and working great! Reaally well done! (samsung galaxy tab 3 WiFi only)

Hi. Installation worked. Added people to address book and whatsapp worked on my tablet. BUT when I wanted to use whatsapp on my phone the verification process started there again. Sofar I can either use my phone or the tablet with whatsapp. Is there a solution? Thanks
@beatelorenz:disqus you can either use Whatsapp on your tablet or on your phone - you cannot use 1 number for two different whatsapp at the same time.
Ok. Thanks a lot for your quick reply. Might by a cheap sim card.
