Use WhatsApp on Web, Desktop, and other devices by linking them to your phone. You can use up to four linked devices and one phone at a time.

Your personal messages, media, and calls are end-to-end encrypted. Learn more about end-to-end encryption in this article. For information on how we collect, process, and share your data, please see the WhatsApp Privacy Policy.

Note:

• Your phone won’t need to stay online to use WhatsApp on linked devices, but if you don’t use your phone for over 14 days, your linked devices will become disconnected.
• You’ll still need to register your WhatsApp account and link new devices with your phone.
