WhatsApp is testing new rules: More freedom when sending data

WhatsApp users have always had to observe a restriction when sending data. Shared media files cannot exceed 100 MB in size. Now the messenger developers are testing a significantly higher limit for the first time – but only in one country for the time being.

After the release of the new WhatsApp-Beta for iOS 22.7.0.76, which brings support for iOS 15, WhatsApp is now starting a test that allows sharing media files up to 2 GB in size in Argentina.

WhatsApp keeps making its app even better with new features. After the rollout of news reactions WhatsApp is now introducing another useful feature for a limited number of beta testers.

WhatsApp: Sharing media files with 2 GB will initially only be tested in Argentina

WhatsApp has started a small test in the past few days that some people can now use to share media files up to 2GB. Unfortunately, this feature is only available in Argentina and is limited to a certain number of beta testers.

Although it is currently only available on WhatsApp for iOS, the possibility is not excluded that the Android version will also be able to share media files up to 2 GB.
