How to access 2 WeChat accounts on Apple mobile phone
Among the hot topics in the past 10 days, how Apple mobile phone users can open WeChat simultaneously has become the focus of discussion. Due to limitations of the iOS system, the official does not support the direct installation of multiple WeChat applications, but users can still achieve this through third-party tools or specific methods.
