Workaround I've been using for a while: You can install both the "regular" WhatsApp and the "Business" version, those are separate apps in the App Stores. This way you can set up your personal number on the regular WhatsApp and your work number on WhatsApp for Business.
Although valid, this is in fact a workaround not meant to be a stable solution, because it has the drawback of de-activating that number-whatsapp link on the first phone you used it on.
edit: I am stupid, as the latest feature actually allows this workaround to become a permanent solution...
hi Anneso!! congratulations on the launch! It's truly amazing what you and the team have been able to create so far, excited to see more updates in the following months. I agree with some of the other comments around here, this might be the best launch description I've ever seen here. side note: where can we sign up to beta test?
That's our local bar in Monterrey, Mexico [1]! We received some paper flyers with a QR when we had our first lockdown, it's nice seeing it pop up in HN.
If anyone's wondering, the bar is still open and operating on a very limited capacity, which has made it much nicer in my opinion. Also, the usual jazz quartet has been replaced with a trio with much younger musicians, since understandably the older musicians don't want to play in a bar during a pandemic.
When you see the owner, please tell they to add their address including city and country somewhere. I was wondering where in the world they were located and I couldn't find it anywhere, not even in their FB page.
How is Monterrey for tourism? I've always been more interested in what Mexico is for most Mexicans than the typical tourist spots. It seems that Monterrey is the most "metropolitan" city in Mexico.
I've lived here for 10 years, so I might be a little biased. Monterrey is by far the most "americanized" city in Mexico, no doubt, and it's mostly a business and industrial hub.
As for tourism, there’s not much to do, at least not when compared to other Mexican cities with more heritage and culture. Being a big metropolitan city, there are many fine restaurants and entertainment attractions, and for me the stand-out landmark is Chipinque, a federal park in the mountains inside the city. You can go there to walk, hike, or ride, and you get a very nice view of the metropolitan area.
All in all, if you were making a tourist trip to Mexico, I’d recommend you pick some place else before coming to Monterrey. However, if you get to come here as a business trip, you’ll definitely have a nice time!
