I've been dealing with this issue for several weeks now, every time I open WhatsApp, I have to perform biometric authentication twice.
I've tried reinstalling the app and even the Android OS, but nothing seems to fix it.

Is anyone else facing this issue, have you found a solution?

For me it asks for 6 digit pin every week though.

Thanks a lot.
Finally works as required, only one single authentication.

Will update here, if problem starts stay.

Remove two step verification and 2fa/pass code etc.
Most imp. ensure you haven't set an app based lock for your whatsapp app and also haven't locked/secured any chats within.
Clear whatsapp cache and data, uninstall. Reboot phone. Install whatsapp. Check now!

If you do not care about media or any backup thing then best option is to try your no. on another phone and see how it goes. I'm 1000% there shouldn't be any issue there.

Tried this earlier doesnt works.. many people are facing this issue as per internet, with no fix.

Will delete obsolete media, take a fresh backup then try again.
