Using Whatsapp on Nokia N9 in 2018?
Hey,
I recently got my hands on a new Nokia N9 and am currently looking for a way to access Whatsapp with it. Is this still possible as of now? I can‘t find a working version anywhere online. |

Thanks for the definite answer. Would installing android be an option in this case?
I‘ve read that some features like the camera or voice calls don‘t work under android. |

yes, you're right, but you can use telegram (meetelegram) and in case you really need whatsapp you can reboot into nitdroid

I did use the dual boot for some time, but it was a pain...you can't recharge the phone if it's switched off, so if the battery goes to 0% you will need a computer with flasher to reactivate it. Sometimes you have to try several times to boot Android or MeeGo and if you receive a call when using Android they won't hear anything. Meetelegram works somehow, but forget images, voice messages and group chats (you don't read the sender name).

Yes, WhatsApp on N9xx is a no-go. Most people buy these devices for their Linux appeal. If you like Linux, explore the many other things you can do with your N9, but if you just wanted a phone, perhaps sell it and get yourself an Android device or iPhone

There were some whatsapp-like apps but couldn’t remember the name of them. They were connecting to your whatsapp from a central database and the redirectig to your phone.
