WhatsApp Set to Introduce Multiple Accounts

Multiple Accounts Coming to WhatsApp


WhatsApp, the popular messaging app, is now allowing users to have two accounts logged in on the same device at the same time. This is a welcome feature for users who want to keep their work and personal accounts separate, or who have other reasons for using multiple WhatsApp accounts.

To set up a second account, users will need a second phone number and SIM card, or a phone that accepts multi-SIM or eSIM. Once they have this, they can simply open their WhatsApp settings, click on the arrow next to their name, and click "Add account".

Once a second account is added, users can switch between their accounts by tapping the arrow next to their name and selecting the account they want to use. Each account has its own separate privacy and notification settings, so users can customize them to their liking.

The ability to have multiple WhatsApp accounts on the same device is a convenient feature for many users. It eliminates the need to carry two phones or log out and back into different accounts. It also gives users more control over their privacy and notifications.

Here are some of the benefits of having multiple WhatsApp accounts on the same device:

  • Convenience: You can easily switch between your work and personal accounts without having to log out and back in.
  • Privacy: You can set different privacy settings for each account, so you can control who can see your profile and status updates.
  • Notifications: You can set different notification settings for each account, so you can choose how you want to be notified when you receive a message or call.

Overall, the ability to have multiple WhatsApp accounts on the same device is a welcome feature that will benefit many users.
