Now you can log into the same WhatsApp account on up to four phones: Mark Zuckerberg
Whatsapp adds a new feature that will enable users to log into the same WhatsApp account on up to four phones. This feature update has been shared by Mark Zuckerberg on Facebook through a post in which he wrote “Starting today, you can log into the same WhatsApp account on up to four phones”. WhatsApp has been rigorously working to make this feature available to users.
In 2021 Meta-owned WhatsApp launched Multi-device support last year which only enabled users to log in simultaneously on one phone and four computers and tablets. But this did not allow users to log in to a WhatsApp account simultaneously on two phones. In 2022 finally, WhatsApp rolled out the much-awaited feature allowing users to log in simultaneously through two phones.
Users needed to follow these steps to log into the same WhatsApp account on a second phone.
- To begin, open WhatsApp on your second device and click on “Agree and Continue”.
- Now, click on the three dots menu in the top right corner.
- Now, click on “Link a device”.
Then, open WhatsApp on your primary device and click on the three dots menu in the top right corner.
- Now, click on “Linked devices”.
- Now, click on “Link a device”.
- Scan the QR code being shown on the secondary device.
For iOS users you have to open WhatsApp and then go to settings and click on Link Devices.
The step for the recent update has not yet been shared as it’s been just a few hours. This new feature is for sure going to add value for the users. As far as the recent update is concerned it increased the number of users that can be added to a group and gave more power to the admin to allow and disallow the member entry in the group.
