Keeping in mind the convenience of its users, WhatsApp has introduced multi-device support feature, which makes the messaging experience easier and more flexible than ever. This feature was first introduced in 2021 and has now gradually become available to more users.

Earlier, to use WhatsApp Web or desktop app, it was necessary for the phone to be connected to the internet. As soon as the phone was turned off or disconnected from the internet, WhatsApp would stop working on the secondary device. Multi-device support has completely eliminated this problem.

What is WhatsApp multi-device feature?

WhatsApp’s multi-device feature lets you connect a single account to up to four additional devices. These devices include laptops, computers and tablets. The special thing is that once linked, these devices do not require the phone’s internet connection.

This feature is very beneficial for those who use multiple devices for work, study or business.

Benefits of multi-device support

This new feature of WhatsApp has many benefits:

• It is not necessary to keep the phone connected to the internet
• Messages can be sent and received even when the phone is turned off
• Ability to connect up to four devices to one account
• Better experience for office and work-from-home users

However, this feature is currently in beta version, so some users may face minor technical issues.

Important things before starting

Notes before using multi-device support:

• The latest version of WhatsApp should be installed in your phone.
• This feature is in beta, so small glitches may occur occasionally
• The phone must be nearby during initial setup

Once the devices are linked, the phone is no longer needed for everyday use.
