Yes you can. I currently have it that way.

But you will need access to the number for the setup process.

Occasionally you have the option to just verify with a URL - needs to be done on the phone you are activation but the 6 digit code in the URL should work as the verification code that you enter.

Be an active participant of the group and not just be there to see what everyone else posts--- kind of like guests on DDF rather than being an actual user who contributes

Is there way to have whatsapp web without a smartphone? I know you need phone to create an account. Can I create account on someone's phone and then log in on my browser and log out on phone?

I am sometimes accused of overthinking things. I am still mulling over whether that accusation has merit.

If that doesn't work Andy and Genymotion are good alternatives.

WhatsApp must be active while you use Whatsapp web, what I did is, I installed WA on BS, went on my browser to WA web, took a picture of the QR with a phone, went on WA web on the BS app showed the picture to the webcam, and I was all set, just make sure BS is on all the time you use it on your regular browser
