WhatsApp supports HD video file sharing, but the feature will consume more storage on iPhone and Android - here's what to do about it.

updates will improve the quality of the content we share, they’re bad news for storage, especially if the people in your WhatsApp chats and groups use older iPhone and Android phones with less available storage.WhatsApp compresses photos and videos to save storage space. HD files are huge, so they’ll take longer to download over a slower internet connection. The videos will then take up a significant amount of your phone’s storage, even if you choose not to save them locally.

We all know that some chats tend to get out of hand when it comes to the quantity of shared files. If it’s a group chat, like the one you might have set up for your family, then it’s guaranteed you’ll receive plenty of pics and clips along the way. The better the quality of the files you share and the files that are shared with you, the more space they’ll consume.It’s not an immediate problem if you have an iPhone or Android handset with at least 128GB of storage. That’s the new standard for base storage across platforms. But plenty of older devices are still in use. Handsets that have 64GB of storage space or even lower than that..

You can set up WhatsApp to never save files shared in chats via the Media Auto-Download settings. Image source: Chris Smith, BGRSettings
