Description

Today we have a new beta version of WhatsApp for Androidversion 2.17.339, with a long awaited novelty, and that is that we can now manage the Storage usage. In this way we can manage the data of each chat that we have active, being able to view and delete text messages, locations, contacts, images or multimedia files.

Without a doubt, this is a really useful feature, with which we can save space on our mobile phone, and that is that, as you can see in the screenshots, when you enter the use of storage,”Storage usage”, we can see the space that occupies us each of our chats. If we click on any of these chats then a new window of possibilities to manage the stored data opens.

In the screen of the storage usage of each chat we can see the number of text messages, contacts, locations, images, Gifs, videos, audio and documents, giving us the possibility to delete what we want if we click on the option “Manage messages” at the bottom of the screen.
