Last week, the WhatsApp app for iPhone received a small, very useful update related to the multimedia content you receive on your device, whether photo or video. In this article I want to explain to you what this function is, how to find it and how to use it.
WhatsApp on iPhone receives this update
This feature, currently only available for iPhone devices, allows you to directly edit any content you have received on your phone, whether it is a video or a photograph. You can check this if you click on any such file you have received, and you will see a scribble symbol at the top.
When you click on it, an editor opens with which we can make the desired changes to this photo or video. Can draw on it, change the color or even edit the video, shortening it if you prefer.
This way, if we want to return the content we received, but with an edition made by uswe can do it directly and without any complications.
This function, although simple and already achievable by other means, is now much more accessible thanks to this shortcut. Therefore, make sure that is now available on your iPhone and feel free to start using it.
It doesn’t appear, what should I do?
If you don’t have this feature yet, it could be due to two factors. First, your iPhone is too old and the version of WhatsApp you are using does not include this update. However, it is likely that the WhatsApp app on your device has not been updated automatically. Don’t worry, to update it you need to go to the App Store, Apple’s App Store. Once inside, go to the top right corner and click on your profile icon. Below, you will see if you have any pending updates; if so, click on “Update All” and you will have the latest version of WhatsApp available.
With this new update of WhatsApp for iPhone, it is easier to edit photos and videos received directly from the application, making it more accessible to all users. If you do not see the feature available on your iPhone, Make sure your app is up to date. With these simple improvements, editing content will be faster and more convenient, allowing you to share your customized versions more efficiently. Don’t hesitate to take advantage of them.
