Though WhatsApp is the most popular messenger app in the world, it has one of the most annoying shortcomings is that the photos or videos sent get compressed to smaller files and lose quality. Though WhatsApp raised the 128MB file capacity cap to 1GB, it is still not on par with competitors such as Telegram, which caps at 2GB for regular users, and 4GB for premium subscribers.
Here are some of the new WhatsApp features that the company may release this year. WhatsApp, a widely used instant messaging platform owned by Meta, has always been innovating and launching new features for a better user experience.
The new features that will be launched this year may include a screen lock for the desktop app, view once text, companion mode, and PiP for video calls.
