How to Have Two Kik Accounts on One Phone

Kik is a messaging app that you can use for messaging your friends, with or without your contact number, just through your username. You can also join various groups with people having the same interest as yours.

Besides, you can live chat with users worldwide and live stream alone, and even a group of friends or unknown people can join you in your stream. It is available on both Android and iOS. 

Using Kik is fun, and a lot of people are on it. So, it's a great place to be at or market your business. However, using Kik for both your needs can get messy and challenging. Hence, multiple accounts and instances of Kik can help you become practical and clutter-free at your work and personal life on Kik.  

So, I recommend using 2 Kik accounts for your personal and professional lives. Here's how to have two Kik accounts on one phone.

Advantages and Disadvantages of Using Two Kik Accounts on One Phone

You can create Kik accounts using a unique username and a valid email ID. There is no restriction on creating accounts on Kik, You can also use two Kik accounts simultaneously on your phone, but that requires a bit of tinkering. 

Advantages

• Use Kik for personal and business work - The main advantage of using two Kik accounts on your phone is that you can use one of the accounts for personal use, where you can have a chit-chat with your friends and family or with a group of people. You can use the other account for professional use. This is where you can talk with people related to your work. 
• Use Kik as an alternative messaging app - Another advantage is that you can link your phone number to one account and use it as an alternative to other messaging apps such as Whatsapp.
• Keep yourself clutter-free with 2 Kik accounts - This enables you to keep yourself updated on the latest work without being cluttered. This helps you save time and resources, making you more efficient and effective. 

Disadvantages

• More accounts equal more space - A major disadvantage is that it will consume more space on your mobile phone as more cache data will be collected. Also, it will consume more data and may cause lags or undesirable stutters in your phone if it has a weak processor.
• Changing your phone will become a hassle - Another con is that it will be difficult swapping to a new phone. Since you have two instances of Kik running, you would need to make two separate backups. Hence, taking more time than usual.
