WhatsApp, one of the world’s most popular messaging platforms, is testing a highly anticipated feature for its iOS users: the ability to add and switch between multiple accounts on a single device. The feature is currently available in version 25.2.10.70 of the app through Apple’s TestFlight beta program.
This update introduces multi-account support, allowing users to:
- Set up a second account as an independent primary account.
- Link an additional account using a QR code as a companion account.
The new feature is especially beneficial for individuals managing multiple phone numbers, such as those balancing personal and professional communication. With this functionality, users can seamlessly manage all their conversations within one app, eliminating the need to log out or use separate apps.
This development follows the feature’s release for Android users over a year ago, where it received positive feedback for its convenience and efficiency. iOS users can now look forward to the same streamlined experience, enhancing their ability to stay connected without interruptions.
For now, the multi-account feature is limited to beta testers, but WhatsApp is expected to roll it out to all iOS users in the coming months as part of its continuous efforts to improve user experience.
Stay tuned for further updates as this feature progresses toward a wider release.
