# WhatsApp

> Use Coco on WhatsApp — the primary home of your AI personal assistant.

WhatsApp is Coco's primary platform. From setting reminders and managing your calendar to sending reminders to friends, everything Coco can do is available on WhatsApp.

## Connecting WhatsApp

There are two ways to connect your WhatsApp account to Coco:

**Option 1 — From the Dashboard (recommended):**

1. Log in to your [Dashboard](https://app.textcoco.com)
2. In the left sidebar, find the **Message Coco** section and click the **WhatsApp** button
3. A dialog will appear with a unique linking code
4. Copy the code and send it to Coco at [+1 (240) 505-4050](https://wa.me/12405054050) on WhatsApp — or click **Open WhatsApp** in the dialog to have it pre-filled for you
5. Coco will confirm that your WhatsApp number is now linked

**Option 2 — Directly on WhatsApp:**

Save **+1 (240) 505-4050** as a contact and send any message to start, then follow the linking code flow from the Dashboard.

## Setting WhatsApp as Your Default Platform

Your default platform is where Coco sends your reminders, daily briefings, and notifications. To set or confirm WhatsApp as your default:

1. Log in to your [Dashboard](https://app.textcoco.com)
2. Go to **Settings → Account**
3. Scroll to **Linked Accounts → Default Messaging Platform**
4. Select **WhatsApp** from the dropdown

<Tip>
  The default platform only controls where Coco proactively reaches out to you. You can still chat with Coco on both WhatsApp and Telegram regardless of which is set as default.
</Tip>

## Disconnecting WhatsApp

To unlink your WhatsApp number:

1. Log in to your [Dashboard](https://app.textcoco.com)
2. Go to **Settings → Account**
3. Scroll to **Linked Accounts → WhatsApp**
4. Click **Disconnect** and confirm

<Warning>
  Disconnecting WhatsApp will not delete your reminders, lists, or any other data. However, if WhatsApp is your only connected platform, you will need to reconnect a platform to receive messages from Coco again.
