How to enable two-step verification for WhatsApp on iOS
If you haven’t enabled the two-step verification for WhatsApp on your iPhone, here’s how you do it.
In spite of being one of the most used chat apps in the world, WhatsApp has been a subject of severe criticism owing to its security issues. Keeping this in mind, the company had rolled out support for end-to-end encryption for everything you send on WhatsApp last year to improve security.
Despite this, there were a couple of workarounds, for example, this, that allowed users to get hold of someone else’s WhatsApp account. In an attempt to block this workaround, WhatsApp had recently rolled out support for two-step verification.
