From now on, the WhatsApp Android version includes a new photo cropping function. It is a functionality inherited from WhatsApp for iPhone, because it has been around for a long time on Apple devices and not on the rest. We don't know why it took so long for it to reach Android, but in the end, it did.
The beta version of WhatsApp shows the interface for you to use the functionality, so it is only a matter of time before it reaches all users. Are you wondering what is the benefit of cutting images in WhatsApp?
The new
feature is very useful for all the photos that contain personal information
that you do not want to share with whom you want to send the photos to.
Now it
will not be necessary to draw with the pencil tool to hide what you want, it
will be enough to use the new pixel or blur tool to hide it. This tool
will be attached to the editing interface that appears on the photos before
sending them via WhatsApp.
This is
a very useful and fast way to hide information or parts of an image without
having to crop it or go to an external photo editor app. In addition, it
is much faster and more aesthetic than doing it with a pencil.
The
function or tool is already in WhatsApp, although you can't use it
yet. They are already in the code, so it takes a few days before they are
activated for everyone and are available on Android mobile phones.
If you
have owned an iPhone before, you will know that on the Android operating system,
this is a feature that was not available before and it is very
useful. Sooner rather than later, you will be able to use it daily when
sending multimedia content through WhatsApp.
