Published

on

Meta-owned WhatsApp announced that it has released a new feature that would allow users to share high-definition (HD) photos with their contacts. 

The announcement was made by WhatsApp head Will Cathcart on X, formerly known as Twitter. 

“A lot of people have been asking for this one! You can now share your photos in HD,” he wrote along with a video. 

Meanwhile, WaBetaInfo — the instant messaging app watcher — shared some highlights about the new feature in a post on X. 

Latest highlights about HD photos

  • The HD option shows up only for photos that are considered good enough to be sent in high quality. If the compressed image quality isn’t significantly different from the high-quality one, or the photo isn’t very large in size, the HD option won’t appear.
  • HD videos will be widely available to more users in the near future. However, it’s already available to some users. 
  • WhatsApp has no plans to natively bring this feature to photos shared via status updates.
  • Sending a photo by selecting the “high quality” option doesn’t mean it will be sent in its original quality. There is still light compression. However, image dimensions are always preserved. If you’re looking for a way to send a photo by preserving its quality, you should send it as a document. 

WhatsApp is a widely used app which has millions of users. It is a major platform for sharing all sorts of data including pictures and videos within a few seconds. 

The messaging app keeps bringing new updates and features to the application to make the user experience better and smoother.

The New York-based cybersecurity firm Wiz has discovered a cache of sensitive data from the Chinese artificial intelligence business DeepSeek that was mistakenly exposed to the public internet.

In a blog post released on Wednesday, Wiz reported that examinations of DeepSeek’s infrastructure revealed that the company had inadvertently exposed over a million lines of unencrypted data. The materials were digital software keys and chat logs that seemingly documented prompts transmitted from consumers to the company’s complimentary AI assistant.

The chief technical officer of Wiz stated that DeepSeek promptly safeguarded the data following the notice from his organisation.

“It was removed in under an hour,” stated Ami Luttwak. “However, this was exceedingly easy to locate, leading us to believe we are not the sole discoverers.”

DeepSeek did not promptly respond to a request for comment.

DeepSeek’s rapid success after the introduction of its AI helper has exhilarated China and incited concern in America. The Chinese company’s evident capacity to rival OpenAI’s skills at a significantly reduced cost has raised concerns regarding the viability of the business models and profit margins of U.S. AI behemoths like Nvidia and Microsoft.

By Monday, it surpassed the U.S. competitor ChatGPT in downloads from Apple’s App Store, prompting a worldwide decline in technology stocks.

WhatsApp has initiated testing of a bulk channel administration feature on iOS for select beta users, enabling the simultaneous selection of many channels, hence enhancing the efficiency of managing following channels.

This essential update enables users to perform bulk activities, including muting many channels simultaneously, designating them as read, and altering notifications. If the chosen channels are muted, users will now have the option to activate notifications. Users can swiftly silence unmuted channels in one action.

Additionally, this feature enables users to unfollow many channels simultaneously, thereby optimizing the process of decluttering their channel list. This change is particularly beneficial for users that oversee numerous subscriptions, as reported by WABetaInfo.

Previously, users were required to manage each channel individually, rendering tasks such as muting or designating channels as read laborious and time-consuming.

The functionality provides enhanced flexibility and control over channel subscriptions, enabling users to efficiently manage notifications. The solution streamlines laborious operations for consumers who subscribe to numerous channels, hence enhancing their entire experience.

Accessibility
The bulk management feature is presently accessible exclusively to a limited number of beta testers who installed the latest WhatsApp beta for iOS using the TestFlight application. WhatsApp, owned by Meta, plans to expand the feature’s availability to a larger user base in the next weeks.

This update demonstrates WhatsApp’s dedication to enhancing user experience by offering a clear and efficient method for managing channels and notifications.
