WhatsApp has released a new beta update for iOS (version 25.19.10.74) through the TestFlight program, revealing ongoing development of a multi-account switching feature. This highly anticipated update will allow users to manage and switch between multiple WhatsApp accounts directly from the app—without needing WhatsApp Business or multiple devices.
The multi-account functionality was first spotted in version 25.9.10.70 and has since been refined. Although it is still under development and not yet accessible to beta testers, the feature is expected in a future update. Once released, users will be able to add a second account from the settings page either by registering a new number or linking an existing account using a QR code.

Each account will retain separate settings, chat history, and notification preferences, offering clear distinctions between personal and professional use. A new section in the settings will display all registered accounts, including profile pictures and names, allowing users to easily identify and switch between them. Switching accounts will be instantaneous, without requiring logouts or app restarts, and a confirmation banner will briefly appear to confirm the switch.
In addition to streamlined account switching, WhatsApp is also working on a new notification system for multi-account users. When a message arrives on a secondary account, a specially formatted notification will show the sender’s name and the account name, minimizing confusion. Tapping the notification will immediately switch the user to the correct account and open the message thread.
This feature will be particularly useful for users managing multiple phone numbers or using eSIM-capable iPhones, which can store and activate multiple phone lines. It removes the need to juggle multiple devices or rely on the Business version of WhatsApp for multi-account access.
While a release date hasn’t been confirmed, WhatsApp is actively refining this feature to offer a seamless, efficient experience for users with multiple accounts. Updates on its availability will continue to be shared as development progresses.
