Meta-owned messaging app WhatsApp may shortly allow users to share photos with other contacts in the original quality. Currently, images shared via WhatsApp get compressed, resulting in grainy photos. But, as per WaBetaInfo, the company is working on the ability to send photos in original quality. WaBetaInfo is an online platform which tracks upcoming features of WhatsApp.

The platform discovered the feature in the WhatsApp beta for Android 2.23.2.11 update. According to report, the messaging app plans to add a new setting icon within the drawing tool header. The new icon will permit users to configure image quality, including their original quality. This will give them more control over the quality of photos.

The new WhatsApp feature is presently under development. It is expected to be rolled out with an update in the future.
Meanwhile, WhatsApprecently reported that it  is rolling out the ability to block users within the chat list and from notifications. The app is adding two new entry points to block users. The 1st shortcut is to block a contact by opening the chat option in the chat list. The 2nd option is to block users through the notification received on their phone. In case a user receives a call from an unknown user, theywill be able to block them right from the app app notification.
