How to connect WhatsApp with a QR code

Before you start

• Have the phone with the WhatsApp number you want to connect in your hand.
• Open CallMePing on a computer or a second screen, so you can point your phone at the QR code.
• Make sure your phone is online.

Scan the code

1. On the CallMePing login screen, choose your country and type your number without the country code.
2. Click Continue with QR code and wait a few seconds while the code is prepared.
3. Open WhatsApp on your phone.
4. Tap Settings, then Linked Devices. On Android, tap the three dots menu, then Linked devices.
5. Tap Link a Device and point your phone at the QR code.
6. Wait for the We're connected! screen. You are taken into the app.

A timer under the code shows how long it has left. If it runs out, click Get a new QR code.

What happens after you connect

• Your recent WhatsApp chats are imported into Chats in the background. This can take a minute.
• Imported chats start with the AI off, so the AI does not suddenly reply in old conversations. You can hand any of them to the AI later.
• The AI is off until you turn it on. Go to Settings and switch on Turn on AI Agent when you are ready.
• Your 7 day free trial starts if this is a new number.

Use a different number

While the QR code is showing, click Use a different number to go back and type another number.
