We have all sent some photo by WhatsApp that, first, seemed very beautiful, but that once opened in the messaging app, the thing changes, and that, by default, goal reduces the quality of the shipments, compressing them, so that they occupy less space and spend less data when sending them.

However, this is something frustrating, since the photo quality It is almost the same on an iPhone of 1,000 euros that in an Android of 200 euros, due to this function. But quiet, it can be deactivated, sending that image or video in the real resolution, so that they can see it much better.

How to send HD images by WhatsApp

This option must be active on your iPhone, since, otherwise, and in a native way, these will be compressed, as we commented, which is ideal for small archives, since they will occupy less space, they will be sent before, and we will not spend so many data or need so much coverage or speed.

However, this changes if we want without resolution being lost In every step we take. To do this, we used Airdrop, mail or other methods in which we could send the entire file, although now it is possible with WhatsApp, or at least without losing so much quality.


To do this, as we can see in the image, we must go to the Settings> Storage and Data> File load quality> Select HD quality.

Once this is done, the elements sent will be much better resolution, as well as a greater weight. However, only other people will receive it, that is, we will not be able to download the photos that send us in this format if the other person does not also have it configured, so it is a good way to pass files in HD, but not to receive them.

If we only want to do this to send a certain type of photos at a timely moment, we can enable it, send them, and then make the opposite step, avoiding excessive data consumption, as we can read in WhatsApp notes, these files could weigh 6 times morethat is, a video could go from 40 MB to 240 MB, which is much greater consumption for both the sending it, and for the one that has to download it.

WhatsApp App

Another option would be to send the files as documents, or even in a compressed folder (ZIP). With this, the other person will have everything as if it were original, or would have passed it to the cloud, a pendrive, etc., that is, without loss of quality or compression. It is more tedious, but for many files or forward more people, it is another way to do so to take into account.

And you, are you one of those who keep sending the photos in any way? The truth is that it bothers someone enough to take the photograph with everyone's best mobile, and then forward them to low quality, since we would not have won anything with it, right? Now you know how.
