WhatsApp is a popular social media giant which have
approximately five billion users all over the world. WhatsApp unveiled a much-anticipated feature for all of its beta testers. This
is called WhatsApp Companion Mode. In our today’s blog, we will focus on the
feature, what is the feature, how and when you will be able to utilize
companion mode.
Companion Mode: What is it?
WhatsApp’s Companion Mode is a feature which lets you link up
to four mobile devices simultaneously. For instance, you would like to use one
WhatsApp account on your secondary mobile phone, you can link your account on
your both primary and secondary devices.
Before now, WhatsApp only allowed users to link four web and
desktop sessions. This feature was called WhatsApp’s Multidevice feature. But
as of today, you can link not only mobile devices, but Tablet devices can also enable
to link with WhatsApp.
At the beginning of 2021, WABetaInfo, WhatsApp's official information source, uncovered the Multidevice
feature. They began rolling out the feature through their beta program in late
2022. After testing, the feature was rolled-out for public. In the
beginning of 2023, they started a roll-out for WhatsApp for Tablets. With that
feature, we are now able to use tablet devices or somehow our mobile devices
also.
How to Use the Companion Mode?
Before diving through the
process, keep in mind that you cannot use an iPhone as a secondary device, but
that you are okay to go if you are using one as your primary smartphone. A
device running Android can be used as both a primary and secondary device.
So, let us get back to
the subject.
You will have to join WhatsApp or WhatsApp Business’s beta
program first.
Note: Due to the large
number of beta testers that volunteered from all over the world, there are only
a limited number of seats available.
Install the most recent
beta version on your primary and secondary/Companion devices as soon as you
sign up to be a beta tester.
Now, open WhatsApp on your secondary device, after clicking
“Agree and Continue” Click “More Option’ by clicking 3dot option on upper right-hand
corner of your device. There will be an option called “Link Your Existing
Device,” tap that and a QR-Code will appear to be scanned.
Pick your primary device where an account is already logged
in. Open “More Option” by clicking 3dot option on the upper right-hand corner.
Then, click on the link devices. There is an option called “Link a Device” click
that. Your camera will be ready to scan QR-Code, head over to the secondary
device and scan the code from your primary device’s camera.
Hooray, Your WhatsApp is successfully connected on both of
your devices!
Note: Some features may still not be available on companion
device.
