Users will be able to run one WhatsApp account on multiple devices, multi-device feature will be added soon!

WhatsApp may soon make its multi-device support available with end-to-end encryption. The Facebook-owned instant messaging app has marketed its privacy-focused encryption for some time. It is claimed to protect text and voice messages, photos, videos, documents and calls in such a way that they cannot be accessed by anyone except the sender and receiver. However, enabling the same level of security across multiple devices while coordinating communications between them is not so easy. There are many technical challenges involved in its implementation.

However, WhatsApp has not yet given its official details. WhatsApp beta tracker by WABetaInfo told It is said that the end-to-end encryption available on WhatsApp will be compatible with its upcoming multi-device support.

Earlier this month, Mark Zuckerberg, in an alleged conversation with WABetaInfo Mention Did that chats will still be end-to-end encrypted when using multi-device support on WhatsApp. The screenshot shared by WABetaInfo shows that the Facebook CEO said that the company solved the challenges involved in implementing end-to-end encryption in an elegant way. This ensures that chats between users remain secure even when using the messaging app on multiple devices.

It was believed that WhatsApp was working on enabling multi-device support since July 2019. This feature allows users to run the app on four devices simultaneously. It seems to be in its final stages of internal testing as screenshots detailing the new edition surfaced online in recent days. WhatsApp head Will Cathcart also reportedly mentioned in a message exchanged with WABetaInfo that the new addition could be made available in public beta in the next month or two.
