A new feature has been introduced in the WhatsApp beta update 23.23.1.77 for iOS, enabling users to link an email address to their account to receive a 6-digit code. This information was previously shared on Net Workshop.
WhatsApp is adding a new way for users to access their accounts when they encounter temporary issues receiving the 6-digit SMS code.
WhatsApp was recently updated on the App Store, introducing version 23.24.70 for iOS. The official changelog for this update is lacking in details about the new features, with most of the information being outdated.
The bug causing slowness in the application for some users has been fixed, but its exact nature remains unknown according to the official changelog.

WhatsApp is now allowing users to include their email addresses in their accounts, even if this feature is not explicitly stated in the App Store update notes.
How to arrange?

When will it happen to everyone?
Some accounts might get this feature in the following weeks even if it’s not mentioned in the official changelog. Make sure to update WhatsApp regularly from the App Store to access this feature if you don’t have it yet after installing the update.
