WhatsApp's new feature will allow you to share files, documents without internet connection

New Delhi. WhatsApp keeps working on new features to make the user experience better on the platform. Sometimes, we need to share files with each other. For this, people use many types of sharing apps.

We can also send files to each other through WhatsApp, but this requires data. But now you will be able to share files through WhatsApp even without internet. The social media company is working on a new feature. Under this, WhatsApp users will not need internet to transfer files between each other.

Share files without internet connection

Recently, a new feature People Nearby has been seen on the latest Android beta version of WhatsApp. According to media reports, this feature allows transferring files between two WhatsApp accounts without internet.

Will require certain permissions

However, this feature will work only if you give permission to WhatsApp. This also includes the permission under which nearby WhatsApp devices will be able to find your WhatsApp phone. Other permissions required for the feature to work are access to storage and media files, location, and the ability to connect with other devices on the local network. 

To share files without data, you will have to make some settings in WhatsApp, after which the file can be shared easily. According to WABetaInfo, a portal that keeps an eye on WhatsApp updates and new features, this feature will be available on WhatsApp Android Beta version 2.24.9.22. From here it will be possible to share photos, videos, documents or other files without internet connection.
