If you are the type of person who likes to keep special or important messages tucked away and therefore don't usually delete conversations, so you should be aware of the chance of your conversations being seen by others people. With this in mind, on some devices, it is possible for WhatsApp to be opened only with Face ID, biometrics or password.
There are other alternatives in addition to the cell phone, such as checking your messages through WhatsApp Web, for example. In this new version of WhatsApp Beta, it is possible for the same account to be accessed by up to four devices. That is, it is possible that the messenger is connected on your cell phone and on three different computers at the same time.
The function divides opinions: parents who choose to monitor their children's messages for security reasons can log into their WhatsApp account in a practical way, for example. Also, some users believe that having linked accounts on multiple devices saves a lot of time – especially people who have, for example, a computer dedicated to work and another dedicated to studies and use guys. However, there are those who are concerned about the greater risk of hacking, that is, having their account silently invaded by a third party.

However, if you do not recognize one of the connected devices, be it a tablet, notebook, computer and even clocks, you can click on the device and then press “Disconnect device". Don't forget to change your password so that no one can re-enter your account without your permission.
