Messaging platform WhatsApp has rolled out native multi-account support for iPhone users, finally bringing iOS in line with its Android version.
iPhone users can now add up to two WhatsApp accounts on the
same device, according to Gulfnews.
Each account keeps separate chats, notifications, privacy
controls and profile settings, while switching between them is handled through
a new “Account List” option in the Settings menu.
The capability is currently available to beta testers on iOS
version 25.34.10.72 and later. Android users have had similar multi-account
functionality since 2023.
The update provides a convenient solution for people who
manage both personal and work numbers, eliminating the need for a second device
or reliance on the WhatsApp Business app. Notifications are also clearly
labelled to show which account a message belongs to, with Face ID or Touch ID
required when switching into protected accounts.
Analysts say the move reflects evolving user habits, as more
individuals juggle multiple identities or roles from one phone. It also brings
WhatsApp closer to rivals that already support multiple profiles.
Although a public rollout date has not been announced,
early-access users in some regions are already seeing the feature.
Broader availability is expected soon as WhatsApp continues
expanding tools for flexibility across accounts, linked devices and privacy
settings.
