WhatsApp is the largest messaging platform in the world, over 2 billion phones use it daily worldwide, and the application that allows access to it is a very complex one, as you already know. The multitude of functions that have been implemented in WhatsApp over time allows the American company to offer us a variety of methods to enjoy the platform, but some of them are not immediately visible, but they can be very useful tricks.
WhatsApp doesn't really have all these easy-to-find tricks, but the one we're talking about today is one that can prove to be extremely useful, especially during the holidays when you travel abroad. More specifically, WhatsApp has an option that is not very easy to find that allows you to choose whether photos, videos, voice messages are automatically downloaded via Wi-Fi, cellular data connection, or never, so you download them by accessing them.
WhatsApp: A SECRET Trick You Must Know About Now
WhatsApp has an extremely useful trick here if you have little internet traffic, which is not much possible in Romania these days, or if you are outside of Romania, where internet traffic is limited. In these conditions, especially now when you travel and instead of 50 GB of traffic on your subscription/card, you only have 3/4 GB, downloading pictures and videos sent via WhatsApp can consume that traffic quite quickly without you realizing what it happens.
WhatsApp allows us to select, however, that all this multimedia content is automatically downloaded only when we are connected to a Wi-Fi network, or never, that is, regardless of whether it appears in the conversation, it is just a preview image in the fog. Only when the image or video clip is selected will the content sent to us by the interlocutors be downloaded, and this way we make sure that internet traffic that can be used for another purpose is not consumed unnecessarily.
WhatsApp has this special option available in its settings menu, so you can go there to look for it because it can save you from a lot of hassles with traffic consumed pointlessly.
