Step by step guide

1. Open Allo to prepare your phone line

  1. Open the app

  2. Open the account tab, then tap on your Allo phone line
    ​


    ​

  3. Temporarily disable the gatekeeper in order to be able to receive the phone call from Meta/WhatsApp.

    1. If the option is on, tap on the gatekeeper
      ​


      ​

    2. Select the “Do not filter calls” option, then go back
      ​


      ​

2. Create an account on WhatsApp

  1. Download WhatsApp and open the app

  2. Enter your Allo phone line, confirm it’s the right phone number
    ​


    ​

  3. When asked for a validation code, tap on “Didn’t receive a verification code”. Allo can’t receive texts just yet.
    ​


    ​

  4. Wait for the second option to become available, then tap on “Voice call”
    ​


    ​

  5. Pick-up the call from Meta. If asked by the generated voice, tap on the number, then take notes of the communicated validation code. Enter this code into WhatsApp

  6. That’s it. You can now finish your account creation
    ​


    ​

  7. If you were using a gatekeeper, go back to Allo to re-enable the option.
