WhatsApp launched the Companion mode about a month ago, allowing Android users to connect an account to up to 5 mobile phones, and now this new feature is also available in the iOS version. According to a report from the website WABetaInfo, in the latest version 23.10.76, iPhone users can use Companion mode.
Finally supports iPhone
The latest version of WhatsApp mentioned above can be downloaded and updated through the App Store from now on. Similar to the function of the Android version, the iOS version will also synchronize the user’s conversation history, together with all messages, on all connected iPhones. WhatsApp emphasizes that the Companion mode will not damage the point-to-point encryption of the conversation, even if it is a non-main mobile phone connected.
GIF autoplay after upgrade
Some functions, such as status updates, still need to be operated by the user on the main mobile phone, and cannot be completed on the connected mobile phone at present. WhatsApp reminds users that this version upgrade has also improved the support for GIF animations in conversations. Users do not need to manually click, GIF animations will automatically play.
