WhatsApp storage feature lets Chile users clear phone space

WhatsApp includes a hidden "trash" function that helps users delete accumulated media and documents. To access it, open WhatsApp, go to Settings → Storage and data → Storage management, then select “Review and delete items”. Users can mark photos, videos, voice notes or files that are no longer needed and tap the trash icon to remove them. The tool also highlights the files that occupy the most space, allowing users to prioritize deletions and avoid accidental loss of important data. Regular use of this feature can free significant storage, improve phone performance, and prevent slowdowns on devices with limited memory.

The article notes that the process works on all platforms supporting WhatsApp and emphasizes that periodic clean‑ups are especially useful for phones with smaller storage capacities.
