User Guidelines and Notifications

Notification Process

WhatsApp, as a response to the disturbing consequences of this change for users, promises at least 30 days’ notice. This update message will be visible as a banner on the WhatsApp application, and it will appear under Chats or Chat Backups, showing them what is happening from which they can plan subsequent changes.

Checking Storage Usage

Users in the stable version of WhatsApp would need to log on and open their account settings to store Google features, for which they have come under the Other category. This helps create transparency, allowing users to manage their storage actively and operate within the given limit.

Go into the current policy move by WhatsApp, which will now cause implications for Google Drive storage of Android users. Explain the consequences, become familiar with scheduling, and find out what this act could mean for users’ practices of data storage.

WhatsApp has made a big change, especially for Android users. Before, they had this rule called Article 69 Section C7.1, and now it’s different. Meta Platforms, the company that owns WhatsApp, made a big decision that affects how Android users’ WhatsApp backups use up space on Google Drive. This change started in December, and it means that the free storage we used to get for our WhatsApp backups on Google Drive is no longer free. This shift is a pretty important deal, and it’s crucial for users to know about it, considering how it affects their storage choices.
