Those who are eagerly waiting for the Samsung to upgrade its UI to Android 11, here's good news for you.

Based on a statement by wabetainfo.com, it seems that WhatsApp could allow users to have their account signed in to up to 4 devices at the same time. While there is no news on when this feature will be available, this means that signing into another device will not sign the user out of the previous device they were using.
