WhatsApp has been planning to add a new Companion mode so you can link two smartphones to one WhatsApp account for a while now. Recently this feature became available for Android tablets and as part of a beta update and now the same is being tested for a secondary smartphone.

A recent report from WABetaInfo reveals that WhatsApp has started rolling out Companion mode to some Android users as part of beta version 2.22.24.18. This allows you to link a secondary phone to the same account, making it easier to manage it on two devices.
A shared screenshot reveals that there will be an option to link a device while setting up WhatsApp on another phone under the three-dot menu in the top-left corner. If this appears you will be able to do the deed.
Once two mobile phones are linked by following the on-screen instructions, all your chats will be synced to the secondary phone. However, some features will remain unavailable due to the beta nature of the feature. These will be the ability to view live locations and manage broadcast lists and stickers. The chats and calls will be encrypted from start to finish.
