Keep getting asked for my tel number

Question

Hi Guys

New guy, first post, here goes

I use an Android mobile (Galaxy J3 2017) and have been using Whatsapp for a long time and not too long ago, I installed WA on my laptop. The reason I did that was because I find it easier using keyboard, especially on a long message.

However, recently, when I try to use Wa on my mobile, it asks me for my tel no, then a code is sent for me to insert, and then it works, but it is a pain in the a... so I don't use it

I have taken a screenshot but I dont see an option to attach?

Uninstall the WhatsApp Messenger from your Galaxy J3 2017. Then open Google Play Store app, install the latest edition of WA on your mobile phone. Hope this will work for you.

Btw, in order to attach a screenshot, you can click the 'Insert image' icon when you create/edit a thread and then upload a picture. (smug)
