If you want to send files like photos, videos and PDFs from your device via WhatsApp, make sure there is sufficient storage space. Otherwise, the messaging service could stop downloading media files to free up space on the phone; alternatively you could try deleting unimportant files or moving closer to your router for improved internet speeds.

Once a document is uploaded, you can send it via WhatsApp by pressing on the Send button. When sent successfully, notifications will appear both on your phone and desktop computer – depending on which device it’s sent from, these could either appear in the top right corner or within Notification Center.
WhatsApp provides another advantage by allowing users to store files securely in their private WhatsApp storage, accessible across both PC and mobile devices. Here you can save videos, audios, photos, voice records, quick notes captured via camera capture as well as any other documents captured using camera capture in encrypted form so no one else can read them.
