It’s worth mentioning that the Email Verification feature will be optional, and your email should be automatically verified if you use your Google account to back up your chat history on Google Drive or have previously set up two-step verification.

With the latest build, WhatsApp’s Email Verification method made its first appearance on the Android app. Currently, it’s available on select accounts after updating the app to v2.23.181.9. In near future, the company will push a wider rollout of the feature with Stable update.
