[Lifestyle] WhatsApp will finally improve its multi-device use, how will it do it?

[Inkriql]

For many, using the WhatsApp application on various devices is essential, and the truth is that the company to date has not made it particularly easy. Well, this is something that is going to change in a short time because this messaging service will finally become a completely multi-device development.

And this means? Well, the limitation that currently exists that forces you to have the phone where you have the active WhatsApp account connected to the internet and synchronized (for example, a computer), comes to an end. In this way, you will be able to open the client on the computer or device -perhaps this is the push that the company needed to have a version of the application for tablets- without any restrictions and with high comfort.

The improvement has been in the testing phase for almost eight months, and of the improvements that are expected like rain in May in the clients of the messaging service (and it matches, once again, what Telegram offers). The fact is that you gain in comfort and flexibility, which can improve the perception that users have when it comes to using it in an advanced way, both on a personal and professional level. We are talking about a very important qualitative leap.
The reasons why this did not come before

Well, everything has to do with security, specifically because of the point-to-point encryption offered by WhatsApp. The company could not find the right way to be convinced to remove the restriction of having the phone active with the application. But, from what you can see, everything has changed and what will be done is that each of the devices that you can have associated with your account will have its own encryption key (so, instead of having one, they are assigned to you automatically). unique many more).

 

 

There are some things that are relevant to take into account, for example that there will be four additional teams that you can have assigned as an independent start. In principle, it is more than enough to avoid problems, but WhatsApp will have to explain the reason for this limitation. In addition, the message download processes from the different devices will also be optimized so that everything is much faster than before.
Arrival of the update for everyone

According to the source of the information, it will be at the end of this month of March when the update will arrive on iOS, while users who have Android terminals will have to wait a little longer: in April (the rest of the versions will also arrive). at the moment). So, we are talking about a real multi-device implementation in WhatsApp shortly, and this is very good.
