San Francisco, April 30: Meta-owned WhatsApp is reportedly rolling out a new "side-by-side" feature on Android tablets for some beta testers. According to WABetaInfo, this feature will allow users to switch between conversations without losing track of their ongoing chats, providing more control over the WhatsApp interface on their Android tablets.

Users can also disable the side-by-side view by toggling the option available within -- WhatsApp Settings > Chats. The side-by-side view splits the screen, which can result in a smaller area for each conversation, especially on devices with smaller screens. WhatsApp New Feature Update: Meta-Owned Messaging App To Allow To Use Account on Multiple Phones.
