WhatsApp was spotted working on a long-awaited feature for users that will allow them to share photos in their original quality. The capability was spotted in the Android 2.23.2.11 beta release, and it seems that it’s still under development.
However, as per a new report by WABetaInfo, the feature is also under development for desktop users.
The screenshot in the WhatsApp feature tracker’s report shows how the instant-messaging platform will allow users to send images in their original quality.
The new capability of sharing high-resolution images through WhatsApp will consume a lot more data, making it preferable to use Wi-Fi to download the photos as they’d be way bigger in size than at present. Thus, the messaging service will also provide users with an option to choose between standard quality and HD quality while sharing media files.
WhatsApp currently offers three photo quality options: Automatic, Best quality, and Data saver. However, as we all know, even the “best quality” option is not much use when sharing good-quality pictures.
The feature is currently under development and will be made available to everyone in a future update.
Audio messages
The Meta-owned instant messaging platform WhatsApp will soon introduce a new feature that will allow users to transcribe their audio files into text.
This feature will let the user transcribe the audio message and read the text instead of the audio. It is a simple yet very helpful feature.
The transcription feature will first analyze what is said in the audio message and will then transform that into a text file.
It will also let the user know when the words in the voice notes are not available or not understood properly or may be of another language which is not recognized by the transcription feature.
WhatsApp is still working on this feature, it is under development and will be available to users in the near future.
Earlier, the Meta-owned instant messaging platform WhatsApp is working on a new feature in the camera and for photo editing.
The messaging giant has introduced several updates in a short span of time and is evolving fast.
This new update will allow users to separately access picture and video recording options. Users can now record videos without having to hold the button down like before.
