It becomes possible to share high-quality images via WhatsApp. A new feature that allows sending HD quality photos has been included in beta versions of the popular messaging app released for both Android and iOS.Until now, users have avoided sending high-quality images via WhatsApp because the resolution of the photos is not preserved. Because it was exposed to high compression, quality loss occurred in the pictures. This will no longer be the case.
Standard and HD quality options
The messaging platform has started testing a feature that makes it possible to share HD photos while preserving their size. The new function allows you to choose the resolution of the image before sending it. There are two options: Standard quality (1600 x 1052 pixels) and HD quality (4096 x 2692 pixels).
Pictures are marked with HD icon in chat when you send them in high resolution. However, it should be noted that the HD quality option does not mean sending the image in its original size. Even when this is selected, the app compresses the image, depriving it of some detail.The new feature is currently available in beta versions of WhatsApp for Android and iOS 2.23.12.13 and 23.11.0.76 respectively. It is not yet known when the high-resolution image sending feature will be made available to the general public.
