Being able to use the same WhatsApp account on multiple devices at the same time is something users have wanted for quite some time. A few months ago, WhatsApp leaked to the internet that it was working on multi-device support , and while the news is making users happy, we haven’t seen the feature in action yet. That’s likely to change, though, when the Facebook-owned company is reportedly considering a public preview of its multi-device messaging feature (via 9to5google) .
For those unaware, the multi-device support feature will allow users to connect multiple devices (up to 4) and use them simultaneously. In other words, you will no longer need to open the WhatsApp mobile app and connect your main device to the internet to use it on other devices.
The multi-device feature is not available in any of the public betas, so we don’t know much about the UI. But what we do know is that this and the multi-device feature are available in other popular chat apps like Telegram
