How To Send Pdf's, Apps, Zip Files, exe Files Or Any Other File Via Whatsapp On Android
Whatsapp Messenger founded in 2008 has now been the leading instant messaging app on smartphones. Smartphone users have clinched to this app, not just because of it's ease of use and data saving benefit, but also due to it's ability to transfer and receive files between users. And one great thing about sending files on whatsapp is that it compresses the file and hence saves data. But the downside of the file sharing feature on whatsapp is that it only supports sharing of a limited number of file types and that is just photos, audios and videos. But in this tutorial I'll show you how to transfer files of any type via whatsapp, using an android app known as 'WhatsTools'. This tool is currently only available for android users (i.e the sender must do this with an android device, while the receiver can recieve/download the file using any device that supports whatsapp or any instant messaging app).
Features Of WhatsTools
This android app enables you to send/share apps, zip files, rar files, exe files, docs, pdf's or any other file that is not more than 1 GB through instant messaging apps like BBM and Whatsapp and also via SMS, email or even the social media platforms.
