Almost two months after its announcement, WhatsApp is finally letting you send a file. New limit of 2,000 MB (2GB). With that, we’re left with the tedious 100MB, which has hitherto been a limit and in many cases prevented us from being able to share an important file.

This wonderful news Considering that the application developed by Meta has already lagged behind its competitors for several years in this section. We can only hope that future functions such as editing a previously sent message will not take as long as this functionality being tested for Argentina.

How can you check if you already have this functionality?

A priori, it’s a functionality It should appear without the need for an update application. However, it is recommended to be on the latest version available. Currently the latest version is 2.22.1.82 for Android and 22.11.75 for iOS.

In any case, the easiest way to check is the most obvious. you have to make sure Have any file larger than 100 MB in mobile storage. Once you find it, you will need to go to one of your chats and try to send it. If you’ve already enabled it, it will be sent without a problem (so you can delete the file so the other user doesn’t see it if you don’t want it).

If it still doesn’t allow you to send large files Up to 2GB, don’t worry. As we mentioned earlier, based on information from WaBetaInfo, this feature is slowly rolling out worldwide. Therefore, it is not available to all users yet, and there may even be a few people who have the same mobile phone and software version and have not.

it will be a matter wait a few hours or days to finally arrive. It’s also fine to have the latest version of the app, as we told you before, because it’s a function that doesn’t need it, but that might introduce a bug that will take longer to implement, and that’s why. Update required with patches for these bugs.
