Screenshot shows new features
For many years, using WhatsApp accounts on multiple devices simultaneously has been a messenger ’s dream. This feature is now included in the new Beta version. The implementation is disappointing.

Messenger WhatsApp will soon get the features fans have wanted for years. In the upcoming release, it should be possible to use WhatsApp accounts on multiple devices in parallel. So far, this can only be achieved within a limited range through WhatsApp Web bypass. The first signs of the new feature appeared a few weeks ago, and now the blog Wabetainfo has learned more details about the feature.
Better link to new devices via WLAN
Therefore, WhatsApp recommends that you use a WiFi connection when connecting a new device to your account. It can be set via a mobile data connection, but it will slow down the process and consume a lot of data. You can read it on the screenshots posted on the blog.
Why WhatsApp recommends using a WiFi connection to set up Messenger is unclear. Your chat history and shared media may be downloaded to every device associated with your account. If you have been using Messenger for a long time, the chat history may be several GB.

Another screenshot posted on the blog shows the welcome screen of the new feature. As a result, you cannot temporarily associate your WhatsApp account with a tablet or a second phone, but only with a PC, browser or smart speaker Facebook Portal. Many users imagine this in different ways, and it remains to be seen whether WhatsApp allows settings on the second phone. For example, if many users temporarily switch to an old mobile phone [such as a camping trip or holiday celebration], this will be practical for many users.
Wabetainfo pointed out that this feature is still under development, so this feature can be added quickly. Another fact indicates that WhatsApp is still using this feature. The source code of the current WhatsApp Beta apparently includes the "linked device" function-but the testers cannot access it, but it is hidden. It is not yet known when it will be released to testers, and later for all WhatsApp users.

For example, dark mode has been developed for several months. However, WhatsApp can implement other functions faster. During the corona crisis, the Messenger integrated many new features. For example, video calls through WhatsApp have been simplified, and the robot should reduce the spread of fake news through Messenger.
