YOGYAKARTA - As one of the most widely used messaging applications by smartphone users, WhatsApp has many features that allow users to send and store multiple messages.

However, if too many files are stored the WhatsApp storage space will be full. It can also hamper the performance of the application, such as late messages being sent and so on.

Therefore, users must be diligent in deleting some files that are not important, or pictures that are automatically stored in the storage space. But, you can actually free up storage space easily on WhatsApp.

You can manage storage space manually so it doesn't fill up quickly and affect app performance. Unfortunately, not all users know how to manage storage space on WhatsApp.

The developer has innovated by making WhatsApp storage space management. With this feature users do not need to delete files periodically because the application will select some files that are rarely opened to be deleted automatically.

To use the storage space manager feature, users can simply update WhatsApp to the latest version on the Play Store or Apps Store, and follow the steps that the VOI team has prepared as follows.

Easy Ways to Free Up WhatsApp Storage Space

As mentioned earlier, the first step is to update WhatsApp to the latest version on your device.

Next, you can enter the application and click the "Settings" menu, then select "Storage & Data". Select "Manage Storage" in the WhatsApp application.

Users will see the storage used by media and chats on WhatsApp. You can delete unwanted files especially pictures and videos from "Group Conversations" which are automatically downloaded.

In addition, you can also delete some files that are considered not important manually. You can enter the WhatsApp application and delete some image or video documents.

Users can also disable the automatic download feature of media sent on WhatsApp so that the storage space does not fill up quickly. This is because the images are saved automatically, which is one of the reasons the memory fills up quickly.

By disabling automatic media downloads, WhatsApp will only save files that have been approved by the user to be stored in the storage space.

While new files are sent to the user's account, they will not be downloaded automatically. This will make your WhatsApp storage space not full quickly.

That's the way you can do to make your WhatsApp storage space not full quickly. Users can perform regular storage maintenance so that the performance of your WhatsApp application is not hampered.
