WhatsApp continues to enhance its user experience with the introduction of new features and improvements. One such feature is the ability to link your WhatsApp account to WhatsApp Web using your phone number, providing greater accessibility and convenience for users. This highly anticipated feature is currently being rolled out to beta testers who have installed the latest WhatsApp beta for iOS updates from the TestFlight app.

 

Previously, some users faced challenges when using WhatsApp Web, particularly if their device’s camera was not functioning or if the browser was unable to generate the QR code. With the new “link with phone number” option, these limitations are overcome, allowing anyone to connect to WhatsApp Web, even in situations where it was previously impossible.

 

 

To link your account to WhatsApp Web using your phone number, simply access the linked devices screen and select the “link with phone” number option. WhatsApp Web will generate an 8-character code that you need to enter into your WhatsApp app to complete the linking process. Once linked, you can seamlessly access your WhatsApp messages and conversations on your computer, enabling easier multitasking and a more integrated messaging experience.

 

In addition to the account linking feature, WhatsApp is also introducing a privacy enhancement that allows users to control the visibility of their phone numbers within communities. By restricting the visibility of their phone numbers to only those who have saved them as contacts, users can have greater control over who can see their personal information. This added privacy feature ensures that phone numbers are shared only with trusted contacts, enhancing security and protecting user privacy.

 

WhatsApp is committed to continuously improving its platform and addressing user needs. By listening to user feedback and implementing new features like account linking with phone numbers and enhanced privacy controls, WhatsApp aims to provide a seamless and secure messaging experience for its users. Stay tuned for further updates and enhancements as WhatsApp continues to evolve its platform to meet the changing needs of its global user base.
