As we all know, iPhones are one of the best smartphones for capturing photos & videos. Due to the great camera configuration, we often capture more photos than we need.
Then, we look for ways to transfer those photos to other devices or send them to other users. The best & the most easiest way to send photos to another person is via WhatsApp. On WhatsApp, you have to open the chat of the person to whom you want to send the photos, select the photos, and then tap the Send button.
The process ends here; the other user must open WhatsApp and view the photos. If auto download is enabled on their WhatsApp account, the photos will be downloaded to their phone. While the process looks simple, there are some issues in this.
First, the image you send via WhatsApp is compressed to reduce the file size. Compression does reduce the quality of your photos. So this means that the people you’ve sent the photos will receive a compressed copy, and they won’t be of original quality.
How to Send HD Photos on WhatsApp for iPhone?
To deal with photo compression issues, WhatsApp released an update a few months ago that addresses the low-quality media sharing limitation. WhatsApp app for iPhone has an ‘HD Quality’ option that lets users send photos & videos in high quality.
It’s important to note that HD quality on the WhatsApp app lets you share photos & videos in higher resolution, but some compression is still applied.
The new HD quality on WhatsApp for iPhone equates to 3024 x 4032 resolution, better than the previous image resolution cap of 920 x 1280. The videos are sent in 1280 x 718 resolution rather than 848 x 476.
