As part of a new iOS update, WhatsApp is introducing an alternate sign-in method that allows users to log in by entering their email.
So far, Meta has yet to make a formal announcement regarding the upgrade. We’re learning about this through WABetaInfo. They explain this tool can be helpful if you’re ever in a situation where you don’t have cellular service and are unable to get the code through a text message. Hints of this upcoming feature were first seen in a beta back in early November. However, access was restricted to a few people. Moving forward, iPhone owners can enter their personal email where they will then receive a six-digit code to sign in.
