Only the application weighs heavily on phones since it automatically downloads from your laptop, photos and videos broadcast via the application. A ordeal for users of a smartphone of 64 or 128 GB of maximum space. However, there is an internal tip to allow you to make room.
How to manage your space on WhatsApp?
For example, it is possible to reduce the quality of the media you store on your device. But don’t get me wrong. If there are many of them, they will always occupy a certain place, whether of excellent quality or not.
The real alternative lies in emptying the internal basket with WhatsApp. For that, nothing could be simpler. Here is the method to respect.
-
Open the application
-
Click on the three small points at the top right of your screen
-
Select the “Settings” option for Android mobiles and “settings” for iPhone
-
To not automatically store the media or manage their quality, select the “Storage and data” option
-
To find WhatsApp’s basket, click on the “Manage storage” option
You will discover on this occasion the space in question that the application and the media recorded on your device occupies. To lighten your basket, then click on “review and delete the elements”. This process will allow you to find all the media over 5 MB currently stored on your device.
What media to favor to lighten your storage space?
You can also select the media of your choice. To free up storage space, it is recommended to delete the heaviest in terms of GO or MO. Click on the trash icon to delete documents. Note that if inadvertently you have deleted a media that you want to keep, you can always return to the discussion to re -order it by clicking on it.
