Apple iPhone users can use two WhatsApp accounts with the help of WhatsApp Business, an official business-oriented version of the app. The app offers all of the features available on the regular version along with other features like auto-replies and catalogs. Notably, if you use WhatsApp Business, it will tag your account as a business. Here's a step by step guide to install dual WhatsApp on iPhone.

Step 1: Head to the Apple App Store and look for Whatsapp business, if you're already using the regular WhatsApp app or if you're already using the WhatsApp Business app, search for WhatsApp.

Step 2: Click on install and download the app.
