A function for easy sharing images and links disappeared from the messenger
Due to the coronavirus pandemic, many services introduce restrictions. However, the new limits in the popular WhatsApp messenger for iOS are not related to the health situation.
WhatsApp will become less convenient on the iPhone. Limitations not related to coronavirus
The thematic resource WABetaInfo spoke about upcoming innovations. According to the source, in the next WhatsApp update for iOS under the number 2.20.50, the function for the secure exchange of images and links was lost. It was introduced at the beginning of the year and made it possible, after a long press on a photo or link, to quickly select the desired WhatsApp contact and send content without first opening the application.
The feature turned out to be unstable, and many users complained about crashes. As a result, the developers removed it from the application.
It is noted that the solution is still temporary, and the WhatsApp team is investigating the problem with the failures. When the function is going to be returned to the application is still unknown. WhatsApp has also updated the context menu in chats and groups.
