WhatsApp's latest feature: sending high-definition quality videos.

WhatsApp, the popular instant messaging platform owned by Meta, continues to introduce new features for both Android and iPhone users. Following the recent launch of HD photo sharing, WhatsApp has now rolled out a feature enabling users to share videos in HD quality.

This new HD video sharing feature, as reported by IANS, is currently available to some users and will gradually be made accessible to all users over the next few weeks. Unlike the previous automatic compression of videos to 480p quality, this feature allows videos to be shared in 720p HD quality. However, it's important to note that sending videos in 1080p or 4K quality is not yet supported.

To send HD videos via WhatsApp, users can follow a process similar to sending HD photos. The first step involves updating the WhatsApp application to the latest version from the Play Store or App Store. Once updated, users can open a WhatsApp chat and click on the attachment icon to select the video they want to send. At the top of the video, there will be an HD toggle button that lets users switch to higher video quality.

WhatsApp has also introduced an editing feature for photo captions. This feature was rolled out last week, allowing users to edit captions for photos, videos, GIFs, and documents. This follows a previous update in May, where WhatsApp introduced the ability to edit text messages within 15 minutes of sending. Now, users have the ability to correct errors or provide additional context for media messages by long-pressing the sent message with a caption and selecting the edit option. This editing capability extends to media messages for up to 15 minutes after sending, similar to text messages.

With these recent enhancements, WhatsApp users can enjoy improved video quality for sharing and greater control over the content they send, including the ability to edit captions for media messages.
