VIVA – WhatsApp will allow users to send photos at full quality without having to worry about image compression. This report was discovered based on code found in the latest beta version of the Android app.
WABetaInfo reports on a new option that would allow users to send images in their original quality. Although WhatsApp already lets users pick between “automatic,” “best quality,” and “data saver,” the platform does not currently allow users to send photos in their original size and resolutions.
Instead, these images are compressed, even when selecting “best quality” to provide faster data transfers that take up less storage space.
According to WABetaInfo, the new feature is included in the WhatsApp beta for Android 2.23.2.11 but it is under development and therefore not yet available to beta testers.

The WhatsApp detective found the feature embedded in the settings as 'Photo quality' within the header of the image tool. Unlike the previous update, the quality configuration can be customized for WhatsApp users.
But there is no mention of whether this new feature will also be extended to video sent on the platform. If not, there is still another workaround which is to change the file extension to send it as a document.
In addition, the app is also said to be given the ability to detect text in WhatsApp photos, so users can copy and paste the text.
There is also the ability to move WhatsApp chat history between Android phones without using Google Drive. Moreover, the camera code that will make it easier for users to record videos.
