Two-step verification is an optional feature that adds more security to your WhatsApp account. When enabling this feature, you create and confirm a unique PIN that's required to access your account. The two-step verification PIN is different from the 6-digit registration code you receive via SMS or phone call.

Is 2-step verification safe for WhatsApp?
Two-Step Verification is a security feature that protects your WhatsApp account if it ever falls into the wrong hands. It also prevents someone else from adding it to another device. Like many online platforms, your WhatsApp account can fall victim to scams, threats, and security risks.
Should I turn on 2-step verification?
One of the best ways to protect your account is to have an extra form of verification in place. 2-Step verification helps keep out anyone who shouldn't have access to your account by requiring a second step after you enter your password.
Why does WhatsApp keep asking for my two-step verification code?
When you receive this notification, it means that someone has entered your phone number and requested the registration code. This often happens if another user mistyped your number when trying to enter their own number to register, and can also happen when someone attempts to take over your account.
