WhatsApp is one of the best chatting apps to have on your phone. It’s easy to use and equipped with a number of handy features that make it one of the most popular messenger – globally.
However, there are some limitations with WhatsApp that devalues it in front of other competing apps.
One of them is the multi-device support.
Other social media networks such as Facebook, Instagram, Messenger and Twitter allow users to log in to their accounts with more than a device at the same time. But when it comes to WhatsApp – you are restricted to a single device.
Well, it seems like this will change sooner or later. WhatsApp has released its beta version 2.20.110 and it includes multi-device support. The feature is currently under development and will roll out in the future.
Titled as ‘Expiring Messages,’ the messages would be visible for 1 day, 1 week, or a month. The user can set the time as per their preference and the message will disappear within the duration.
The iOS update for WhatsApp is now available on the App Store.
