WhatsApp lets you send messages, images and documents as well. But the platform has a file size limit of 100MB which has forced many users to use Telegram because it supports sharing of large file sizes. Now, the popular messaging app could be about to let you send files up to 2GB, and the app is testing it publicly through the beta version this week.

The details come via WABetaInfo once again, which says the file-sharing feature is being tested among a select group of users in South America.
The testing is compatible with both Android and iOS platforms, and WhatsApp could be using a select group of users to test it because the 2GB size limit could become rather challenging to operate at this level for the platform right now.
The testing phase is nascent, so we’re not even sure if WhatsApp will actually succeed in rolling out the feature for everyone.
