- WhatsApp allows its users to forward images without losing the caption, but this can be a little tricky to figure out sometimes.
- The Facebook-owned messaging app allows its users to forward a message to up to five chats at a time.
- Let’s check what this feature is and how it works.
WhatsApp is one of the most used messaging platforms with nearly 2 billion monthly active users. The messaging service offers regular updates and features to provide security and improve user experience. It is not only limited to sending text messages but rather offers various other features like sharing photos, videos, voice recordings, GIFs etc.
Until now, it was not possible to forward picture messages along with the caption. Each time a person forwards a picture to other contacts, the caption automatically disappears. Now, thanks to a new update, you can now forward the picture messages without the caption being removed.
However, it is important to note that whenever you share a forwarded message, a ‘forwarded’ tag will always appear. This feature is available for both iOS and Android users.
Here’s how to forward WhatsApp pictures without the caption being removed:
- Open WhatsApp and go to the chat from where you want to forward the image.
- Tap and hold the image and click on the ‘forward’ option.
- Select the personal chat or group to which you want to forward the image.
- The image will be shared without losing the caption.
While forwarding an image with a caption, you can either share the message as it is or can also edit the caption before sending it to others.
