WhatsApp, the Meta-owned social messaging platform, brings another feature to its users, making their lives easier and free from the hassle of switching to different devices to access multiple accounts.
WABetaInfo reported that the messaging application will now offer its users a multi-account system, which will let them log into multiple accounts simultaneously.
The account switching feature was in the works in the WhatsApp Business beta since reports first surfaced in June this year. But the feature is finally available to some beta testers after the version 2.23.17.8 update on Google Play Store.
It’s possible to add a new account by tapping the arrow next to the QR code button (visible at the top right of the app’s settings screen). In the same menu, it’s also possible to switch to another account. When you add a new account, it stays on your device until you decide to log out,” WABetaInfo said in its report.
With this latest feature, users can keep all their chats in one place, including private conversations, professional correspondence and other communications.
“It keeps your interactions with notifications separate, and lets you switch between accounts without the need for different devices or parallel apps,” WABetaInfo said.
The WhatsApp update website makes it easier for users to use multiple accounts on the same device, instead of creating different setups for separate accounts for each. “You can use an app on your main device to access and switch between your accounts.”
