Yes, but you are not getting my point. No need to use data when you are in a Wifi zone. And if you don't turn off the data it will charge you when you can just use your Wifi.

Good, that is what it does on post paid. So you need to do nothing further. No need for airplane mode.
when in my apartment i am on wi-fi and do not use data for anything. as soon as i walk off the property it switches to Claro data. when i return as soon as i hit the front entrance my phone chirp, chirp, chirp and i am back on wi-fi. no need to go into settings and do a manual on/off as it is all done automatically
So why talk about airplane mode. I assume you have post paid data plan? And if you do have it you can use your phone in the US and Latin America with free roaming. But you need to set it up.
OK. Then you need to be careful with the auto switching. Make sure the switching works by checking the data pin when it should be off.
Thanks for the replies regarding my problem of needing a factory reset and the SIM card not being available.
As some mentioned you don't need the SIM card associated with your WhatsApp in your phone, they just send you a normal text message to verify once, unfortunately I left that SIM in another country, so no access to try it in roaming mode etc.
I think this Desktop version may allow me to have access to my old account, while I start a new account on WhatsApp after a factory reset (or change number).
It is a bit annoying, but WhatsApp had a beta version (developer trial sort of thing) that you could change your number and it would automatically inform and transfer your chats on all your contacts to the new number, but that is no longer available now.
This is what they really need to roll out, as it is now, I can change my number on WhatsApp before factory reset, but then none of my contacts know about this until I message them - good if you want to get away from a feme fatal, but not practical as you may miss a message you really need ... (the Desktop version might help in that, not sure... !? Maybe after number change the Desktop also stops working... !?)
Anyway, I might just wait till I get to my SIM...

That is only when you download the original Whatsapp, in android there are so many whatsapp versions, whatsapp gold, whatsapp blue, etc that has installed bugs from hackers that use mirrow hacking where they can see everything you write on whatsapp like pictures, banck accounts numbers, passwords, etc.
You must be sure that you are downloading the correct whatsapp version and select in security option tow step verification on.
It does not, the phone just needs to be online, even the telco data network is sufficient.
