Beta is a preview. The Beta (2.0) platform does not have all the features of Stable yet. For example, iMessage on Beta supports only text and images, so tapbacks, polls, message effects, and voice notes are only on Stable for now. Use Stable for production agents, and confirm that Beta supports the features you need before you buy a plan.

Photon-provided iMessage numbers cannot be registered with WhatsApp Business: their WhatsApp registration is reserved for personal WhatsApp. Photon SMS numbers can only be registered for WhatsApp Business through Photon, not through another WhatsApp provider. WhatsApp Business registration codes are reserved for Photon connections and are not shown in SMS message history. Follow the WhatsApp Business guide to complete setup.
