By the way in shape WABetaInfo portal. WhatsApp now requires you to enter a 6-digit code before logging in. It can be obtained from SMS or from the number of an incoming call. Now there is a third way.
It will come in handy when you transfer your account to another device or want to have WhatsApp on two smartphones at the same time. Now, upon first login, you can receive a confirmation code from a push notification that will be sent to a device with an already authorized account.
This means you no longer need a SIM card to log in. Note that new WhatsApp users will still need to link their phone number.
The feature is currently in beta for Android. Experts note that the innovation will appear in the next updates. iPhone owners will have to wait even longer.
