Meta will soon let you link your WhatsApp account with Instagram and Facebook
Meta announced on Tuesday that users will soon be able to add their WhatsApp account to their Accounts Center, a hub where users can manage connected experiences across their Facebook, Instagram, and Meta Quest accounts.
With this integration, users will be able to cross-post their WhatsApp Status as Stories on Instagram and Facebook, getting rid of the need to post multiple times. It will also allow users to log in to multiple apps with the same account through the “Single Sign On” feature, which is an authentication option that allows you to do things like use your Facebook account information to log into Instagram.
Meta notes that your WhatsApp messages and calls will remain end-to-end encrypted if you choose to connect your WhatsApp account to the hub.
Accounts Center, which is found in the Settings section of Meta’s apps, was first introduced in 2020 as a way to give users the ability to manage their connected experiences across the company’s services.
