TRIBUNNEWS.COM, NEW YORK – WhatsApp is testing increasing the file sending limit for certain WhatsApp Beta users.
According to WABetainfo, some WhatsApp Beta users can send files up to 2GB in size. The increased file sending limit appears to be limited to certain WhatsApp Beta users in Argentina.
Currently, WhatsApp can only send files between users with a maximum size of 100MB. With this size, WhatsApp users can only send a few photos and short videos.
Meanwhile, WhatsApp’s competitor, Telegram, has already offered a file transfer limit far above WhatsApp.
Telegram users can share and send files up to a maximum of 2GB starting in 2020.
