Use 3 WhatsApp accounts on a single iPhone: A special feature may be coming for these users—how will it work?

WhatsApp previously introduced support for multiple accounts on iPhone. Following that, the company rolled out multi-account support with the 6.22.76 update. This feature allows users to add a second account to the same WhatsApp app without signing out of the first one.

Data for both accounts remains separate; each account has its own chat history, notifications, backups, and settings. This ensures that information from one number does not mix with the other account.

This feature is particularly useful for users who previously had to carry two phones or repeatedly log in and out of accounts to manage two WhatsApp numbers. However, the current limit is set to two accounts.

**Testing for a Third Account Underway**
WhatsApp is now preparing to expand this to three accounts. Reports indicate that signs of this change have appeared in WhatsApp beta version 26.37.10.15. This update is currently being made available for testing via TestFlight.

If this feature is released, users will be able to use three different numbers within a single WhatsApp app. The chat, notifications, and settings for the third account will also remain distinct from the other accounts.

Currently, users managing three numbers often rely on extra phones or alternatives like WhatsApp Business. If WhatsApp rolls out support for three accounts to all users, the need for such workarounds may decrease.

For now, the feature is in the testing phase. WhatsApp has not confirmed when support for a third account will be released to all iPhone users. While the feature's presence in the beta version indicates that the company is working on it, its testing status does not guarantee a final rollout.

If officially released, this feature could make it significantly easier for users with three WhatsApp numbers to manage their accounts from a single phone.
