NEW DELHI : Facebook-owned instant messaging application WhatsApp has redesigned its storage management tool to make the platform more useful for people to easily identify, review and bulk delete content that may be acquiring more space on their phones.
The tech giant now offers easy clean-up suggestions by bucketing both large files and media that has been forwarded many times, sorting files according to size in descending order, and by providing a way to preview files before deleting them.
The new update also allows users to see a preview of media before selecting one or multiple items to delete.
