Meta-owned instant messaging application WhatsApp is reportedly rolling out the ability to add descriptions to forwarded images, videos, GIFs and documents. The features are currently available to some beta testers.
According to WABetaInfo, a website that tracks WhatsApp, this feature can come in handy when the current caption doesn’t accurately describe the image or if you want to add a different description.
Soon, you’ll be able to remove the current caption and add a custom description to the forwarded image. This feature is useful if the current caption doesn’t describe the image correctly or you want to attach a different description.
When you delete the current caption and add your own, the new description will be sent as a separate message so recipients know it’s not related to the original message.
