WhatsApp iOS seemed to finally catch up with Android version with a notable improvement on iPhone. It allows users to use multiple accounts on the same device. This “new” feature, which has appeared on Android since 2023, has been discovered by Wabetainfo in the latest Beta TestFlight program of the iPhone application.
When this multi -account account conversion feature is publicly issued, users will be able to manage and log in to multiple WhatsApp accounts in a single version of the application. This will eliminate the need to use many devices to manage each account, especially useful for small businesses.
However, each account still needs a separate phone number, so you will need a phone that supports multiple sims or other ways to get more phone numbers. Fortunately, the new iPhone models can now store up to 8 ESIM and use two phone numbers simultaneously, so this is no longer a big obstacle.
In addition, it should be noted that WhatsApp has now provided the WhatsApp Business application in parallel with the standard application. This means that iPhone users were able to maintain 2 accounts on one device (each account on one application), but this new feature still brings more flexibility.
How to work new features
According to Wabetainfo, there are two ways to add more WhatsApp accounts to one device. You can set up a new account as an independent main account, or use the QR code to link a new account as a “sub -account.” The site also clarifies that factors such as “notifications, conversations and backups will be separated for each account,” so the way you register your account is more related to the convenience of the convenience. The initial setup instead of the way you use the application.
Currently, the Beta Testflight program of WhatsApp for the iPhone has opened but does not accept new members. This means that iPhone users are eager to wait until this feature is officially released.
Unfortunately, Wabetainfo has not provided specific information about the time when the feature will be released. However, if you are considering buying an extra device just to use an additional WhatsApp account, maybe you stop it again.
