WhatsApp has recently introduced a new feature that allows users to access their accounts on multiple devices simultaneously—a feature that was previously unavailable.

With this update, you can now link phones as companion devices, making it easier to switch between phones without the need to sign out. This means you can seamlessly continue your conversations across different devices. For small business owners, this update also enables additional employees to respond to customer messages from their phones under the same WhatsApp Business account.

To use WhatsApp’s multi-device support, there are no specific requirements other than logging into your primary phone every 14 days to maintain connectivity across devices.

To set up WhatsApp on multiple smartphones, follow these steps to activate companion mode:

1. Install WhatsApp on your secondary smartphone.
2. Accept the privacy policies during setup.
3. Tap the three dots in the top-right corner.
4. When prompted for your phone number, skip this step and use the three dots to open a drop-down menu.
5. Choose the option to link this phone as a companion device.
6. A QR code will appear—scan it to link your secondary phone to your account.
