WhatsApp is making the web platform more functional and feature-rich in the last few months. The recent WhatsApp beta versions have talked about the ability to make calls from the web app itself, and soon, the messaging app could make it easy to manage all the photos and links that you share with other people on the platform. 

The new tool has been spotted in the WhatsApp beta for Android 2.24.13.4 version and the details about this feature has been shared by WaBetaInfo in a post this week. 

WhatsApp Web Manage Media Files Hub: How It Works 

The tipster has shared a screenshot of how the interface for the media hub on WhatsApp web will look and you can see it over here. 

WhatsApp web will basically get a new tab for the media hub on the side panel below the communities section, and when you click on it the interface will open with the media, docs and links section available on the screen. 

It seems WhatsApp will also have a search bar at the top of the hub so that you can manually search for a particular photo, video or website link that you may have shared with one of your contacts on the messaging app. 

That’s not all, the tipster claims the media hub will give details about the contact who shared the documents with you and the date it was sent. And yes, in case you want to clear up the media files or documents from the chat app, the multi-select option will give you the option to delete them or send them at the same time rather than selecting them one by one. 

WhatsApp web client has a lot of potential, not just because of how people use it but since most people at work might not work on peeking at their phone to see messages. The mirroring feature has enabled you to see the WhatsApp profile on the web, and soon, it will have support for video calls, just like Google Meet or Zoom on the web app itself. 

The release for the new media hub is still in development so it will probably take a few months before we see it available on the public beta version. Meanwhile, WhatsApp has finally got the iPad app available on the App Store from this week. It has taken the platform over 15 years to bring a dedicated app for the device but now people can use the messaging app with all its features and privacy intact.
