WhatsApp is testing a new feature on its latest beta version that lets users add contacts using QR codes.

The QR code support feature was spotted by WABetaInfo that reported that the feature is now available through a server-side update for the 2.20.171 version of the Facebook-owned messaging app. This feature was under development and the platform has begun rolling out the feature for beta testers starting.

Users can access their personal QR Code from WhatsApp settings. They can then share this QR code with other people who can add the users in a quicker manner.
