WhatsApp already allows you to send any type of file

The new function allows us to send files of the type that are in our conversations. Something that can undoubtedly be extremely useful for many users, who have been demanding something like this for some time. Now WhatsApp fulfills those wishes. This function will be available for Android, iOS and Windows Phone.

All kinds of files

This move gives the feeling of being an answer to Telegram. Since in Telegram it is possible for a long time to send all kinds of files. Also, they can weigh more than 1GB. For this reason, WhatsApp is "forced" to also include this function, in order to prevent users from going over to its main competitor.

In the past it was possible to send PDF or Word, Excel or Powerpoint documents on WhatsApp. Although it was very useful for most users, this is a very important step. Now, it doesn't matter what type of file it is. Anything goes. We can send all kinds of files to our contacts, which is undoubtedly a notable change in the application.

Although not everything is as beautiful as it should be. There is a size limit on files. For iOS users it is 128 MB. In the case of Android users it is limited to 100 MB. The feature will also be available in the computer version of the application. In that case it will be limited to 64 MB. So the size aspect is something that WhatsApp should still work on. But at least, it is already possible to enjoy this function. For those interested users, it may take a few days to be available on your device. So be patient. What do you think of this new WhatsApp function?
