WhatsApp to work without Internet
Millions of users of the popular messaging app WhatsApp owned by Facebook currently need an internet connection to use the app, but now the company has announced a key feature in this regard.

WhatsApp has announced that the company will soon introduce a new feature that will allow users to use the messaging application on many devices without an active internet connection.
According to reports, WhatsApp's multi-device feature is currently in development and will be launched in the next two months for both Android and iOS testers.
According to a technology report, WhatsApp head Will Cathcart and WhatsApp CEO Mark Zuckerberg have also confirmed that the multi-device feature will be introduced very soon.
Note that, to ensure a good product, it might also take a bit longer, because release dates can change during the development, but two months is their main goal.
