Option to free up space in WhatsApp
Finally WhatsApp has implemented one of the functions most requested by all. The possibility of cleaning the app more easily, efficiently and effectively. That's what the news is about that, in the next few days, we will all have activated.
We are enjoying it in the BETA phase and that means that in the following updates of the application, it will be progressively implemented to all users. That is why do not get impatient and be patient because this new function will arrive, sooner or later, to everyone.
WhatsApp is improving a lot in recent years but it is still far from its immediate competitor, Telegram It still has to improve and add many functions available in the “little paper plane” app, to be the best messaging application in the App Store Incorporating functions such as the one we are going to discuss below, brings it closer to which, today, is the best messaging app in the world.

Storage management in WhatsApp
In it we can see what the files of Whatsapp occupy of the total storage of our device. We, as you can see, have 165 mb occupied by them.
The files that occupy the most and the ones we have used the most appear at the bottom. By accessing them we can download, edit and, of course, delete them selectively or all at once. We will do this by clicking on the “Select” option .
Below we see, in order of storage, the chats that take up the most space in the app.
Chats that occupy the most on WhatsApp
Entering each one of them we access all the multimedia files that are in them, ordered from heaviest to least, and allows us to select the ones we want to delete or, directly, delete them all in one fell swoop.For them you have to click on the "Select" option that appears at the top right of the screen.
Free up space on WhatsApp by selectively deleting videos and photos
By clicking on any video, photo, meme we can edit, save, mark them as favorites and delete them.
A great function that will make the app much “cleaner” because, as we all know, WhatsApp is one of the applications that generates the most “trash” and the most space occupy our entire device.
