It offers end-to-end encryption, in addition to all of the in-demand messaging features such as video-sharing, GIFs, emojis, stickers, and more. However, WhatsApp can collect a lot of data very quickly — because of all of these features — which can cause the app to bloat and take up more space on your phone.

That’s why it’s important to use dfndr’s WhatsApp Cleaner regularly to clean out the app by discarding old and unwanted files. Doing so will help to free up space on your phone for new photos, apps, and more. WhatsApp Cleaner will even show you exactly how much space you can save by removing old files. You can choose which files, and from which date, you want to remove. That way, you won’t delete any old files that you want to keep on the app. Click here to start removing old WhatsApp files:

WhatsApp Status
Facebook and Instagram have already introduced Snapchat-like features on their apps, so it was only a matter of time before WhatsApp joined them. WhatsApp is now adding a Stories-like feature that allows users to post videos or photos to their status update. The new feature will be called WhatsApp Status, and like Stories, it will allow users to post photos or videos in a timed sequence. The photos or videos will then disappear after 24 hours.

However, WhatsApp Status offers more than posting timed photos and videos. You can share GIFs to your status and post videos that are up to 45 seconds long — quite a difference from other Stories features that only allow 10 seconds of video. As with the rest of WhatsApp, all Status updates have end-to-end encryption, so no need to worry about the privacy of your content. In addition to that, all Status updates will only be shared with your contacts.

How to Use WhatsApp Status
Make sure that your WhatsApp app is updated to the latest version. If you’re using the latest version, you’ll see a Status bar at the top of the screen. You can add a Status update by clicking the “+” button at the bottom of the screen. You can choose a photo, video, or GIF from your gallery, or else take a new photo or video. Your Status update will then appear in the Status bar, and you’ll be able to see how many people view it. The privacy of your Status update can also be adjusted, and your contacts can reply to your update, if desired.

WhatsApp Gifs Remove
What is a GIF?

GIF — which is pronounced “jif” — is an acronym for “Graphics Interchange Format.” It is an image format that enables users to send short, inaudible pixelated videos to friends. It is a popular way for various users to communicate. Instead of sending an emoji or a wordy response, a user can locate a GIF that perfectly mimics how he or she is feeling. For example, if a user is excited about news that he or she just received, they could respond to a friend’s text message with a GIF of their favorite TV show character jumping up and down with excitement.

Here’s how you can access GIFs on WhatsApp.

First, open WhatsApp. Then, click the “+” button in your WhatsApp messenger. Select “Photo & Video Library,” and you should see your camera roll. After this new update, you should see a magnifying glass in the bottom left-hand corner, with the word “GIF” on it. Select this magnifying glass and a row of GIFs should appear. You can search through these GIFs, or scroll through the most recent or popular ones to pick one that suits your fancy.
