WhatsApp Rolls Out New Storage Management Tool

[GeoStructural]

Telegram works better IMHO, it's just an habit thing

Telegram is indeed better, I admit... but not as widespread, sadly. And in communications the adoption rate and user base matters.

All of my close friends use WhatsApp. Its great and I prefer it over SMS. Also many of them use iPhones so it is fully compatible with Android too unlike iMessenger.

All we want next is WhatsApp to be a unified cross platform messenger on any device......not something that's stuck on a Phone.

Isn't it already?

iMessage needs something like this. The attachments are a MESS and a reason I stopped using iCloud Messages. Why is there no DELETE ALL button?? It’s a pain in the ass to remove all attached images from a conversation and then it shows you different storage / images in the message app itself compared to the settings app and also I don’t like that you can’t automatically save all received images to the camera roll. I always end up wondering like hmmmm did I already save them and can I delete them from messages?

Yep, iMessage is utter crap, I don't understand why people would prefer it. I've even read people on this forum saying they will never switch to Android simply because of iMessage!

Don’t really know much about WhatsApp. Isn’t it just another Facebook messenger-like app? What makes people here who actively hate (justifiably) Facebook, want to use this app?
I’m American btw if that even helps. Everybody in my social circle uses iMessage, FB messenger, and Snapchat

It's because you are American. iMessage is like yours football, and WhatsApp is like soccer. No one in the world calls it soccer, just plain football, but only the Americans don't know its THE only football for the rest of the world.

It's like the only true world messaging app. It's been around 6 years I don't use SMS and iMsg anymore. If you travel abroad, it will be everywhere. No one uses FB messenger, iMsg, Snapchat anymore. (maybe only not in China, since they use WeChat)

There are some ‘dumb’ phones that run WhatsApp actually, I remember it being supported by one of the basic Nokia phones released a little while back.

Do you mean one of those three Nokias that work on KaiOS?

Zuckerberg is way ahead of you. Facebook Messenger, Instagram, and WhatsApp are being merged into just "front ends" for the end user, the backend is all Facebook.
