For years, WhatsApp has only allowed one account on its app, and you had to get a WhatsApp business app to add another number. It looks like this is about to change.
You can now add another number to the app on the latest WhatsApp beta. This means you can have two accounts running on the same app.
This feature is limited to a few beta users. Simply head to your account on the settings page. You’ll see the QR code and next to it will be a drop-down icon to add another account.

You can add another number and run the same app will have two accounts on it.
To switch between accounts, head to the three-dot menu available on the chats tab, Updates tab, Communities tab, and Calls tab. The option to switch will be the last one and tapping on it leads you to your other account.
Now you can ditch using a WhatsApp business account for your secondary number.
This feature is slowly rolling out and will be available for the public later.
The Meta-owned messaging app has been rolling out new features such as adding a new security feature that makes it harder for people to determine your location from calls, new user interface sharing photos and videos in HD, instant video messages, Channels, among other features.
