We have been waiting for this new feature on WhatsApp for years. You will not ever run out of space on your phone again thanks to this feature
In the software industry, WhatsApp is the messaging app that is regarded as the gold standard. The project's sponsor, Meta, has executives who are well aware of this. As a result, they are sending us updates and improvements on a regular basis.
At the moment, we use this instant messaging service for both work and personal purposes. Many of our contacts have been added here, and we communicate with them frequently and in real time. Among other communication tools, we can also send voice messages and make video calls.
The inability of this app to share various types of files is one of the main issues it has had for a while, and it has a detrimental effect on our phones. This implies that large files, including animated GIFs, pictures, videos, memes, and more, can occasionally be sent and received. It goes without saying that these multimedia materials occupy a substantial amount of space on our devices when they are used excessively.
The majority of users will adore this new feature, which was recently found in WhatsApp's beta versions. Actually, it is being released to address this issue and keep our phones from filling up with all the files we get. Occasionally, we discover that our phones have several gigabytes of storage space taken up by pictures and videos that we may never view again but that were sent to us via WhatsApp at the time.
This is WhatsApp's latest space-saving feature.
In particular, we can now block access to these files thanks to a new feature that WABetaInfo recently found and is testing. This basically means that, as was previously the case, we can turn on the same feature to stop video or image content from downloading automatically. Thankfully, we will now have the option to allow or prohibit downloads for each type of media file separately.
The amount of space on our phone at the moment or our interest in a specific file type we will receive on WhatsApp are just two examples of the numerous variables at work here. Furthermore, our new integration will not only save space but also keep our mobile gallery free of amusing pictures and images that we may not even care about.
