Allowing users to link their WhatsApp account on multiple phones will make messaging much more convenient, especially for those who use multiple devices frequently. It’s great to hear that this feature will maintain the same level of privacy and security, ensuring that personal messages, media, and calls are still end-to-end encrypted. It’s also a useful feature for small business owners, who can now allow their employees to respond to customers directly from their phones under the same WhatsApp Business account. The alternative and more accessible way to link to companion devices by entering your phone number on WhatsApp Web to receive a one-time code is also a welcome change. Overall, this update seems like a significant improvement to the multi-device experience on WhatsApp.
