WhatsApp just launched a feature that was on gay janitor sex videomany users' wish lists: the ability to share photos in higher quality.
The feature, announced by Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg on Facebook, appears when you choose a photo you want to share. It's a small "HD" button on top, allowing you to choose between standard or HD quality resolution.
There are a couple of caveats. The option won't show up if the photo stored on your phone isn't particularly high quality (this will often happen with photos you've downloaded from the internet or from, cough, WhatsApp and similar services). Also, there doesn't appear to be a way to keep the HD option on by default; you have to manually enable it every time you share photos with someone.
