WhatsApp is finally allowing users to link their account to multiple smartphones at once.
This comes via a beta update to the messaging app that adds a “companion mode” that was previously only available to a select group of testers when it debuted late last year.
Secondary devices will still be able to make calls, send and receive messages when connected to the Internet, even when the primary one is offline. Up to four secondary devices can be added to a single account. On the main device, navigate to “linked devices” in the menu, and select “link a device”, then all that’s left is to scan the QR code and the secondary device will be good to go.
According to leaker site WABetaInfo, the feature is only accessible to beta testers who install the latest beta app, but some users have reported access to the feature even without joining the beta program., after which the option to download the beta version should be added to the Google Play Store.
