WhatsApp Hack Tracker: Check Your Own Access
Start with Linked devices in WhatsApp's settings or main menu. Review your browsers, computers and companion devices, then log out unfamiliar entries. Your phone can still work while a linked device has access. This guide helps you check your own sessions and activity privacy; it does not provide a hidden activity feed.

WhatsApp location / login tracker: review your sessions
Use Linked devices to review your own linked access. The examples below are review decisions, not a reproduced WhatsApp screen.
- 1Find the actual listOpen Linked devices from WhatsApp's settings or main menu; the route varies by app version.Settings or main menu > Linked devices
- 2Check every linked deviceReview browsers, computers and companion devices against the devices you deliberately linked.Linked devices > Device list
- 3Remove unfamiliar accessSelect an unfamiliar device and log it out. Your working phone does not rule out linked access.Linked devices > Select device > Log out
This is an owner session review, not a live location service. Linked devices can work while your primary phone is offline.
When to repeat your Linked devices review
These are suggested review moments. WhatsApp's separate linking route is why checking only registration is insufficient.
- Check for a browser authorised through a fake WhatsApp Web page.
Linked devices - Check companion devices after a contest or invitation asked you to authorise linking.
Linked devices - Select and log out entries you do not recognise.
Linked devices > Select device
- Review the device list for links you did not approve.
Linked devices - Remember that your phone may continue working despite unwanted linked access.
Your primary WhatsApp app - Remove unfamiliar linked browsers, computers or companion devices.
Linked devices > Log out
- Review Linked devices after re-registering your number.
Settings or main menu > Linked devices - Enable or update the extra registration credential.
Two-step verification - Check that the recovery email belongs to an inbox you control.

Spy apps are a threat concern, not a reason to install a tracker. Start with WhatsApp's own linked-access review.
