Currently, users can log in from a smartphone and a PC (via WhatsApp Web) at the same time, however there is no information on whether the update will be cross-platform. It’s basically unclear if a user with an iPad and an Android phone will be able to use the feature. Last year, one of the beta versions on iOS rolled out a new feature that asked users for a registration code. Once enabled, it allowed users to use WhatsApp on multiple devices with the same account.WABetaInfo discovered this feature in WhatsApp beta for iOS 2.19.120.20. When logging into a new device, WhatsApp usually asks for a verification code that was set up earlier. In beta, the app notified the user that a registration code was requested for the account. A notification also appeared in this version, although it had not been enabled. (Read our previous coverage from November) WhatsApp is also reportedly testing another feature that will allow users to search by date while searching for group conversations and chats. If enabled, searching for a message around a particular date will be easier than it currently is. Find the latest and upcoming tech gadgets online at Tech2 Gadgets.
