WhatsApp tweaks SMS authentication, makes using different number easy
[size=small][size=medium]It seems WhatsApp has tweaked its SMS-based authentication system. The change is minor but the convenience that it brings to users is huge. The new authentication method makes it incredibly simple to use WhatsApp on a phone using a different number.[/size][/size]
This means if you want to keep WhatsApp on a phone that is not your primary phone but with the same primary number, you can do that easily. Earlier too, it was possible but the process to set up WhatsApp used to take longer and involved the authentication with a call.
[size=small][size=medium]Earlier WhatsApp detected the authentication SMS automatically. In case you supplied it with a phone number that was not being used on the phone on which you had installed WhatsApp, the authentication process would fail. The authentication then would be done through a call.[/size][/size]
