WhatsApp is the world’s most popular cross-platform messaging application. It has clients for both mobile devices and computers, allowing users to take their favorite conversations with them wherever they go. Historically, companion apps on WhatsApp have been restrictive, requiring users to keep their mobile phone — their primary device — connected at all times in order to use WhatsApp clients on other devices. Fortunately, this outdated system is all set to change, thanks to WhatsApp’s recently introduced multi-devices program. Today, we’ll take a look at the program and tell you how to use one of your mobile phones as a companion device.

WhatsApp multi-device is one of the latest features to come out of the company’s stables. The feature, which is currently in an opt-in beta state, allows you to exchange messages via companion apps — Web, Desktop — even when your primary smartphone is offline.
This is a welcome change, as users will no longer be cut off if their phone runs out of battery or data. A whopping four companion devices are currently supported.
