The WhatsApp management continues to introduce various features for the convenience of users, this time there is an interesting news regarding the use of WhatsApp without internet.
According to the report of a foreign news agency, WhatsApp is adding a feature similar to iPhone’s AirDrop.
It may be recalled that this feature was first seen in the Android beta version of WhatsApp in April this year, now it has been tested in the iOS beta version and it is named Near by Share.
According to a report by WhatsApp Beta Info, this feature will allow users to share various files like images, videos and text documents with nearby smartphones without internet.
Yes indeed it will be possible to share files with other smartphones through WhatsApp even without internet connection.
This feature will be very useful for users as it will allow sharing large files with friends or loved ones even when there is poor internet coverage or no internet.
However, this feature will work in a slightly different way in iPhones compared to Android. On Android, this feature will work just like AirDrop.
In contrast, the feature on iPhones would require users to scan a QR code. It is not yet clear why WhatsApp chose QR codes for iOS devices.
The new report states that this feature will only work when the share request from other people is approved.
Under this feature, it will be possible to share files only with those people who are in the user’s contact list. All shared files will be protected by encryption so that no third party can access them.
The feature is currently being tested in beta so it is hard to say when it will be rolled out to everyone.
