With most Android skins able to create a twin/clone app, this means you can potentially have 4 WhatsApp accounts in a single phone! This is great for small businesses. Hopefully this rolls out soon to everyone.

    Mahmood Albraim, 20 Oct 2023I'm not referring to any of that, I'm talking abo... morePeople who would use this feature would've already had 2 whatsapp accounts to begin with. The current workaround with iphones is to use whatsapp business for the second account. This doesn't have any impact on privacy for the users who would use it.

    I mean you wouldn't just create a new whatsapp account for giggles, would you?

Zuckerberg got more data from your Facebook and IG posts and all those trackers on every website. Whatsapp is arguably one of the better chat apps out there now with its improvements.

              So with 2 numbers on the same app your data is getting more accurate, Mark is locking us up more and more.
