WhatsApp has announced its latest security feature, where users switching their account to a new device will be asked to verify the move on the old device.
The company said this feature, called Account Protect, will help to alert users of any unauthorised attempt to move their account to another device. The prompt will ask users to “Allow moving your WhatsApp account to another device” with details namely time and device type being used.
