WhatsApp doesn't allow one account on two phones. If you suspect it's active elsewhere, check by opening WhatsApp Web/Desktop and verifying any open sessions: tap 'Menu' > 'Linked devices.' Sign out of devices you don't recognize to ensure your account's security. For multiple devices, consider using the companion mode for tablets, which lets you link a secondary device without a phone number but under the same account. Always maintain strong security by enabling two-factor authentication to protect your account.**
