ALL WhatsApp users can now send photos and videos in HD quality for first time.

The world’s most popular messaging app started rolling out the massive update in August.

But the Mark Zuckerberg-owned company has revealed the process is now complete.

So now you and friends can share big memories in the full quality they deserve.

You should notice a brand new button.

However, be careful before pressing it.

While sending photos and videos in beautiful HD is tempting, make sure you’re not short on storage or data.

HD images are much larger, so they’ll quickly eat through both if you’re not careful.

It can also take longer to send them.

How to send HD photos and videos on WhatsApp

To send a video or photo in HD on WhatsApp, start by sharing a photo in the usual way.

But before hitting the final send button, look for the HD button at the top.

Tap it then select HD quality.

Hit Done, then the send arrow button.
