In order to improve the security of the messaging platform, WhatsApp is working on the development of another security verification code that will be required to access the platform.
A future update of WhatsApp beta for Android and iOS will add an extra layer of security before logging into a WhatsApp account.
WABetaInfo reports that the new feature is still under development, so it has not yet been released. However, the estimated arrival time is still unclear.
When the feature is released to beta testers, any successful attempt to log into a user’s WhatsApp account from another device will require an additional verification code.
According to the report, the company is now working on this feature to protect users who naively share their 6-digit code.
A recent report stated that Meta owned platform is working on the ability to edit text messages for a future update of WhatsApp beta testers.
