Meta's instant-messaging platform WhatsApp always has something to offer to its users and it's back with another new feature for linked devices this time.

Based on the latest updates of WhatsApp beta for Android and iOS, the application is rolling out a new feature to allow users to create, view, and follow channels from linked devices, according to WABetaInfo.

But how will this new feature improve your user experience?

Previously, users had to switch between devices to access their preferred channels.

However, the new feature puts an end to the previous issue and allows users to manage channels from their linked mobile devices.

According to WABetaInfo, this new feature will make users independent from their primary device for channel interactions, offering flexibility and convenience in managing their channels.

It also allows users to access their favourite channels across multiple devices.

The channels feature for linked devices is currently available to some beta testers but it's rolling out to more users soon, WABetaInfo reports.
