The messaging app WhatsApp, which is owned by Meta, has started rolling out an option for “HD photos” and plans to provide “HD Videos” soon. Founder and CEO of Meta Mark Zuckerberg revealed on Thursday that WhatsApp users can now send high-definition photos.

How WhatsApp ‘HD photos’ option works
To maintain fast and reliable photo sharing on WhatsApp, the default option for sending photos will remain as Standard Quality. Users will have the choice to select between the standard version and upgrading to HD on a per-photo basis.
