The WhatsApp 6‑digit code is a verification code sent to your phone number by SMS or call when you sign in or set up WhatsApp on a new device. It confirms that you own the number and helps keep your account secure. You must enter this code into the app to complete the login process. Never share this code with anyone, even if they claim to be from WhatsApp, as it can be used to access your account.

During initial setup or re-registration, the WhatsApp 6-digit code is the One-Time Password (OTP) that is sent via SMS or phone call to confirm who owns your phone number. It is essential for account security; if you share it, anyone with the code can take control of your account.
