Currently, WhatsApp provides users with 3 photo upload options, which are automatic, best quality, and data saving mode. No matter which one the user chooses to use, when sending photos to relatives and friends, WhatsApp will compress them to save mobile data and The effect of storage space. To send photos without compression, you have to play tricks and transfer photos in file form.
feature under development
When the website WABetaInfo analyzed WhatsApp’s latest Android Beta program (version 2.23.2.11), it found that WhatsApp is developing a new feature option that allows users to send uncompressed photos. This option is hidden in the picture selection screen. Users can decide the quality of the sent image before sharing. One of the options is the original quality of the photo. Since it is still in the development stage, it is unknown when the testing and official launch will start.
Take up more data and space
Being able to send uncompressed photos preserves details, but at the same time increases data usage and download times for the recipient, and takes up more space on the recipient’s phone. I believe it is also because of the above reasons that WhatsApp has not yet provided quality options for video uploads.
