WhatsApp now allows multi-device use

You will now be able to sign into your WhatsApp account on multiple devices.

Announced on WhatsApp’s official blog, the instant messaging service will now allow multi-device support for one account.

Users will now be able to link their phone as one of up to four additional devices like linking WhatsApp on web browsers, tablets, and desktops. WhatsApp ensures that all messages, media, and calls are end-to-end encrypted to ensure safety and security.

If the primary device becomes inactive for a long period, WhatsApp will automatically log it out of all companion devices.

WhatsApp says that the update has started rolling out globally and will be available to all users in the coming weeks.
