To tackle the enduring problem encountered by users, Meta has introduced a solution enabling WhatsApp users to effortlessly manage two accounts on one phone. This recent update, implemented last year, brings relief to many in India, where the prevalence of dual SIM phones contrasts with the challenge of using two WhatsApp accounts simultaneously. Using WhatsApp, you have the option to maintain two accounts, each providing standard features and functionalities. Your active account is the one currently logged in, while your inactive account is the one not in use at the moment. Even when inactive, you'll still receive alerts for messages and calls. Simply switch to the relevant account to view the content. You can personalize each account by setting distinct profile pictures, about fields, notification preferences, and privacy settings. It's important to note that this feature is currently exclusive to Android users.

To establish a second account, adhere to these steps:
1. Navigate to more options > Settings > Account > Add Account.
2. Review the Terms of Service and Privacy Policy, then tap Agree and Continue to confirm.
3. Choose your country from the dropdown menu to include your country code. Input your phone number in international format. Tap Done or Next, then confirm reception of your 6-digit registration code via SMS or phone call by tapping Ok.
4. Enter the 6-digit code to finalize registration. Explore further details on registering your phone number on Android if needed.
5. Input your name in the new profile and proceed by tapping Next. Optionally, upload a profile photo and provide information in the about section. To alternate between accounts:
6. Launch WhatsApp.
7. Tap more options > Switch accounts.


Note:
• Currently, this feature supports a maximum of two accounts.
• Activity on idle accounts is visible to users. Switch accounts to access the content.
