Hey everyone, I was entertaining the thought of going away from owning a smart phone.
I already have a modded ipod classic that I use as my main music player.
I also know how to use a paper map.
I also have the Microsoft authentication app for work (I could just use my phone on wifi mode for this)
The last issue I have is WhatsApp where I communicate with friends and family around the world.
Is there a way to use WhatsApp on a non-smart phone? Or should I just buy a pixel and install a secure rom?
Still using a laptop? Isn’t there a WhatsApp download for a desktop app?
Edit - although you would still need some sort of smartish phone to set that up I am sure.
Haven’t checked the same might be true for the Authenticator app. If you are just dealing with one time number codes there are Firefox plug ins you can use.
I use WhatsApp on my computer, in a web browser, but you do have to activate it from your phone via a q code.
You didn’t think meta would give away Whatsapp without harvesting your phone number did you? Remember you and your data are the product
