WhatsApp adds tool to delete large amount of media at once – Tablets and Phones – News

On the “since Android 11” part I can only say: it has only been out for a month and this did not make Whatsapp decide not to implement it in 2014.

On the technical side: is there no kind of UUID? The possible loss of SD storage, you should indeed take that into account. Is encryption also possible for some Android versions?
About your loss of storage: well, and what if your phone breaks down but you can still read the SD card? Lost Grandma’s photos because your phone slipped off the sink edge.

And no, apparently not. It bothered my mother, it bothered my sister, it bother me. What am I playing? A top model smartphone several years old, Snapdragon 835, 4GB RAM and … 32GB internal storage.
If I look at the price watch now, many models even under 300 euros have 64GB / 128GB, but even then I see things like a pricewatch: Samsung Galaxy A40 Black emerge. From last year. 32GB, oops.
Enough people walking around with a 2 or more year old device, and that was probably not a flagship at the time of purchase.
