Meta adds three new features to keep WhatsApp accounts secure
Meta strengthens WhatsApp account security with alphanumeric two-step verification passwords, unknown-caller context on Android, and multiple passkeys per account.
Meta upgraded WhatsApp's two-step verification from a six-digit PIN to a longer alphanumeric password that can include special characters. On Android, calls from unsaved numbers now show context such as whether the number is registered in another country or shares groups with the recipient, countering scam urgency. More than one billion users have set up passkeys, and users can now register multiple passkeys on one account across mixed platforms.
