Most famous chatting media WhatsApp is likely working on a feature that would let users chat with the same account on multiple phones, or on a phone and a tablet. WhatsApp new feature: working on multi-phone, tablet on same account.
A screen found in a beta version of the app by the site WABetaInfo gives instructions for registering the device you are using as a “companion” by scanning a code with your main phone, though currently there does not appear to be an actual code to scan.
Meanwhile, a screen found in a previous beta showed that devices could be getting the ability to sync recent messages, even though they are end-to-end encrypted. That screen, combined with the “Register Device as Companion” screen that instructs users on how to use WhatsApp on another device.
Adds up to compelling evidence that this feature is in the works, the report said. Both screens have been found in the Android version of the app, which implies that the feature will support chatting on a secondary phone or tablet. At the moment it is unclear if the feature will also be available on iOS if and when it launches, though there is precedent indicating it will.
