San Francisco, NFAPost: Meta-owned messaging platform WhatsApp is reportedly working on a new feature that will allow users to send photos in their original quality.
The platform is planning to integrate a new setting icon within the drawing tool header which will allow users to configure the quality of any photo, reports WABetaInfo.
The new feature will provide users more control over the quality of photos they are sending, especially when sending the photo in its original quality is necessary.
The ability to send photos with their original quality is currently under development and is expected to be released in a future update of the application, the report said.
On Wednesday, it was reported that the messaging platform was rolling out a new ‘voice status updates’ feature on Android beta, which will allow users to share voice notes via status updates.
The company also provides users more control over their voice recordings by offering the ability to discard a recording before sharing it.
WhatsApp rolling out new ‘voice status updates’ feature on iOS beta
Meta-owned messaging platform WhatsApp is reportedly rolling out a new ‘voice status updates’ feature on iOS beta, which will allow users to share voice notes via status updates.
Selected beta testers can now share voice notes as status updates by accessing the new feature within the text status section, reports WABetaInfo.
The maximum recording time for a voice note is 30 seconds, and users also have the option to forward voice notes from their chats to status.
The platform also provides users more control over their voice recordings by offering the ability to discard a recording before sharing it.
Similar to images and videos, voice notes shared via status will automatically disappear after 24 hours and users can delete them for everyone at any time.
Moreover, the shared voice notes are end-to-end encrypted so only people whom users choose can listen to them.
The new feature is expected to be widely rolled out to more users over the coming weeks, the report said.
On Wednesday, it was reported that the messaging platform was rolling out the same feature on Android beta.
