Emptying this hidden folder in WhatsApp, the messaging app network, helps to decongest the phone’s memory.
WhatsApp is the world’s most popular end-to-end encrypted messaging app, so it can get congested with media files coming from all your chats.
However, the app has a hidden folder that, when emptied, frees up a lot of space in your phone’s memory, which will be very useful for your mobile.
To access this ‘trash’ users will have to go to the file manager on their phone, locate the folder named WhatsApp , enter the “Media” folder and proceed to delete images, videos or audios that are no longer needed.
Steps to follow to recover space on WhatsApp
These steps generally work for Android devices , but may vary depending on the type of phone. It is also recommended to have automatic backups to recover files that may have been accidentally deleted.
In the case of iPhones, it is also possible to completely delete WhatsApp documents and data, but the process is a bit longer. First, the user will have to connect their iPhone to the computer using a USB cable.
Afterwards, you will need to open iTunes, click on the iPhone icon and go to the “Apps” section. Then, you will proceed to scroll down to the “File Sharing” section and select WhatsApp. There, you will be able to choose all the files and data to delete.
