The photos and videos that we receive every day in WhatsApp We can fill the storage in question for a few weeks, especially if we are in several very active groups. To avoid this, it is recommended to clean up our conversations through the tool that the application includes, and that in its latest beta has begun to activate its improved storage manager.
WhatsApp Beta in its version 2.20.201.9 it releases its renewed tool to free up space, which presents important new features that will help us delete files without having to resort to other file explorers such as Files by Google.
The new storage usage tool
In some devices WhatsApp Beta has activated the new storage manager found in WhatsApp> Settings> Data and storage> Storage usage. The new version premieres two new features.
The first novelty is that now a bar visually informs us of the storage used in total by the device and the free space, showing in green the storage used by WhatsApp media files.
The second novelty is a new section that will suggest which files we can delete, like all forwarded images and videos or the large files. Your manager allows us sort files by size, or by date (newer or older).
In the last section we will see the conversations as in the current version of WhatsApp. By clicking on each conversation we can free up space by deleting text messages, contacts, locations, photos, stickers, GIFs, videos, audio messages and documents.
It is unknown when this new WhatsApp storage manager will reach the world, or at least all WhatsApp Beta users. Sometimes it usually takes several months for these news to reach the stable version.
