Tricks for Sending Large Files on WhatsApp

Messaging media on WhatsApp is one of the most widely used chat applications today. In addition to a simple and easy-to-use interface, WA is also equipped with various features.

But there is one feature that I feel is lacking, or maybe there are other users who feel the same way. This feature lies in sending files that are limited.

As we already know, the WhatsApp application has a condition where the file must be under 100 MB to be sent. If, for example, the file we are sending has more than this limit, a warning will appear when trying to send the file. Approximately appearance is like the following.
