WhatsApp is constantly working to make the platform more convenient and user-friendly. Transmission of content on social media apps is a constant, never-ending process. Users are always using it. Messaging and other kind of social media apps often compresses or allows compression options when it comes to the transfer of media, in order to save data and for faster transfer of data.

The same used to happen with WhatsApp. WhatsApp chat earlier compressed photos and videos while sending them in chat or sharing them on stories.

But this year saw WhatsApp rolling out the feature of sharing HD photos in chat. We covered this feature for you, which you can check here.

Now WhatsApp is even allowing the option to share HD videos for its users. The company earlier confirmed in the month of August that they would roll out the feature for Android and iOS users soon. Earlier WhatsApp compressed HD videos to up to 480p.
