One WhatsApp Account, Accessible on Multiple Phones

Remember the excitement last year when we made it possible for you to keep up with your WhatsApp chats across all your gadgets while keeping everything secure and private? It was like being able to continue a heart-to-heart talk with a friend, no matter which room in the house you were in.

Well, today we've got more news that might just make your day. You know how you always wished you could use your WhatsApp account on more than one phone? You spoke, and we listened. We're taking our multi-device offering to the next level by letting you use your WhatsApp account across multiple phones.

Imagine it as extending your living room conversation to include the kitchen, the garden, and even the neighbor's house - wherever you want to be, really. You can now link up to four additional devices to your account, just like you've been doing with WhatsApp on web browsers, tablets and desktops.

And here's the best part: each linked phone will connect to WhatsApp independently, wrapping your messages, photos, and calls in that same cozy blanket of end-to-end encryption. If you forget and leave one of your phones idle for a while, don't worry; we'll automatically log you out of all companion devices to keep everything safe.

Think about the convenience. If you switch between phones, you can pick up exactly where you left off in your chats. Or if you run a small business, now your team members can respond to customers using the same WhatsApp Business account, right from their phones. It's like having your little shop open on every street corner!

But we're not stopping there. We're rolling out an even simpler way for you to link to companion devices. Forget scanning QR codes; you'll be able to enter your phone number on WhatsApp Web, receive a one-time code, and just like magic, enable device linking. It's like unlocking the door with a friendly smile rather than fumbling for keys.

These updates are already making their way around the world and will be knocking on your door in the coming weeks.

So go on, embrace the new freedom, and know that we're always here, working to make your conversations as effortless, personal, and secure as a chat over a cup of tea in your favorite armchair.
