JAKARTA - WhatsApp has become one of the popular messaging applications. No doubt, users also want to have many accounts at once. And, granted by Meta.

Currently, WhatsApp is reportedly testing multi-account features to allow users to log in with multiple accounts on one device.

WABetaInfo, who first learned about this information, saw the functionality of multi-accounts on the latest WhatsApp Business beta for Android 2.23.13.5.

Once implemented, users can log into several WhatsApp accounts from the same cellphone without making copies of both applications.

There are also references for this feature that go to the application's regular version. In addition, users can switch between different accounts from the WhatsApp settings menu.

If the user uses the dual-SIM function on the phone and the number is active on WhatsApp, users can use multi-account support to manage conversations, from both accounts in the same application.

The multi-account feature will also make it easier for users to manage notifications and file sharing. However, it is still unclear whether users can also use multiple accounts on a companion device linked to the main device.

It's no surprise that there are users who have many accounts, usually they separate personal accounts, work and business.

This feature will first appear in the beta channel, before it is released to a stable or public version. Unfortunately, WhatsApp is not the first messaging app to have a multi-account feature.

Telegram already provides similar multi-account support in its application, so WhatsApp is only chasing competitors, as quoted from Android Police, Friday, June 16.
