In order to be more user-friendly, WhatsApp is constantly working on its platform. Soon, you can check your account using an email address on WhatsApp.
For people who find themselves balancing work and personal lives, it’s a bonus addition.
The only verification procedure that WhatsApp has been using so far is the phone number verification process.
However, they’ve started testing verification with an email address now. These features are available to test users with the latest WhatsApp Beta Update.
WhatsApp will implement this security measure if your account cannot be accessed. But there are specific concerns as well.
In contrast to telephone numbers, email addresses are more likely to be compromised. A text message sent to your phone feels more secure than an email.
Someone’s WhatsApp account might also be in danger when someone forgets to log out of their shared device or if they get compromised by different means.
In order to, test this feature, make sure that you’re using one of the current Android versions: 2.23.24.10, 2.23.24.8, or 2.23.24.9 and follow the steps:
- Click on the ‘Settings’ menu in the WhatsApp app.
- Choose the ‘account’ option.
- Tap the’ Email Address’ option to verify your account using an email address.
