This means avoiding the step of download the photos that are sent through the chats With which, the time invested in getting to the new message from the desktop of the terminal can be used to download the image and be able to see it directly as soon as you access the conversation.

Finally a small improvement has been introduced when it comes to sharing any file through WhatsApp This is a tab that shows the most recent conversationswhere to publish said file. Next to this tab are those that collect group and individual conversations A utility to find our latest conversations without having to memory.
