WA.cr asks before changing a number another provider uses
Tell WA.cr when you connect that another provider still uses your number. Its automated replies start off, and WA.cr asks before changing anything the other provider would see too.
Released 24 September 2026
When another provider still uses your WhatsApp number, WA.cr now stays out of its way: no double replies, and no surprise changes to what you share.
What's new
- A new question when you connect. WA.cr asks Is this number still live with another provider? Choose Yes, and WA.cr's automated replies start off on that number.
- WA.cr asks before shared changes. Some settings belong to the number, not to each provider: its business profile and photo, username, compliance details, blocked customers, registration, data storage, Meta Business Agent and which catalogue is linked. On a shared number, WA.cr tells you what will change for the other provider too and waits for your go-ahead.
- Nothing changes behind your back. WA.cr never changes those settings by itself on a shared number. For example, it doesn't add its own line to your profile's About.
- Change your answer any time. It's separate from Automated replies on this number, so changing one never changes the other.
Developers using the WhatsApp API proxy can find the header that confirms a profile or block-list change in WhatsApp API proxy.
Open Settings, then Channels, pick the number and tick This number is also live with another provider.
