How to mute video in whatsapp status


How To Send A Video On WhatsApp Without Sound

By Shikhar Mehrotra

WhatsApp lets users mute a video before sharing it. This can be done when recording a video from the app, or while sharing a file from the gallery.

WhatsApp offers several in-app editing features for media, and among these is the ability to send videos without sound. WhatsApp is the most popular instant messaging app in the world. Apart from messages, it lets users share images, videos, and documents. In 2021, it rolled out a feature that allowed users to share media that disappears from chats after it has been viewed once by the recipient. It even lets users choose between three options for photo upload quality.

Despite all the features it offers, WhatsApp still lags behind rival messaging platforms like Signal and Telegram in some aspects. For instance, it still has a 100MB limit for sharing documents on Android smartphones and a 128MB limit on iPhone. Users who want to share larger files will have to use links from third-party cloud storage solutions like Google Drive or iCloud, depending on the smartphone they are using. Another WhatsApp feature that's been in the works for a while but isn't available yet is message reactions, which lets users send a quick reaction to a text message using an emoji.

In 2021, WhatsApp introduced a 'mute' button for videos which lets users remove the sound of a video before sharing it. The feature can be used in multiple scenarios. For instance, users might find themselves in a noisy environment but want to send a video of their surroundings to their friends. Or, they might want to share a video of their child or pet, while muting a private conversation taking place in the background. The mute button might not be used frequently, but it's a useful feature to have in the app. WhatsApp gives users the ability to remove a video's sound when recording footage through the in-app camera or when sharing a saved video from the gallery.

To send a WhatsApp video without sound, users will either need to record a video or select one from their gallery. On the screen that shows the length and size of the file, tap on the small 'speaker' icon located at the top left corner of the display. Click on the send button, and the video shared to the recipient's phone will play without any sound. This method works on both Android and iOS devices. Before this feature was introduced, WhatsApp users had to rely on third-party video editing apps to mute their videos before sharing.

WhatsApp plans to release several new features for both its app and desktop interface. A recent report by WABetaInfo revealed that WhatsApp is testing group polls with up to twelve options on iOS. Additionally, another report by the publication suggests that link previews could return to the desktop version of the platform. WhatsApp is also said to be working on increasing the size of files that can be transferred to 2GB.

Status in WhatsApp: how to make, see, remove

The WhatsApp messenger has a feature that is very similar to Instagram Stories, but few people know about it and use it. Statuses allow you to share interesting moments of life, and if you need WhatsApp to communicate with customers, then statuses can become an additional tool for promoting and drawing attention to goods/services. nine0003

In the article we will tell you what statuses are in WhatsApp and how to use them.

Whatsapp status is a short photo, video or text message that disappears after 24 hours (similar to a story). The tool is in the "Status" tab (thanks, Cap).

Statuses can be seen by your contacts, you can also manually forward the status to specific contacts in a private message. The posted status looks like a circle with the contact's avatar in a frame. A colored circle means that the status is not viewed, and a colorless one shows viewed ones. nine0003

There are 4 types of statuses available in WhatsApp - photo, video up to 30 seconds, text on a colored background and GIF. Also, statuses have an editor like the editor in Instagram stories.

Important: status can only be seen by people who are in your address book, and you are in their address book. That is, if you saved Petya to the phone's address book, but he does not have you, he will not see your status unless you send it manually.

How to put a photo or video status

Go to the "Status" section. While you have not posted any status, there will be a green plus on the avatar. We click on it. There is also a green camera icon in the lower right corner. You can click right there.

The camera opens, as in the story. If you click on the central button once, the camera will take a photo. If you hold down the button, you get a video. You can send a video of 30 seconds at a time, if the video is longer, you need to send it in parts (this also works like in stories). nine0003

You can upload a finished file from the gallery. To do this, scroll through the feed from the latest files, or swipe up to open the gallery.

Choose a photo or video. The editor opens.

Photo and Video Status Editor Overview

There are 4 tools at the top of the editor:

Photo Crop (also allows you to flip the file).

Smilies.

Text. Allows you to write text over an image or video. To change the color of the letters, just swipe up and down on the color palette on the right. Text can be moved to different parts of the screen, as well as enlarged and reduced. There is only one font in this editor.

Pencil. This is also a text tool - it turns the color palette on and off. That is, to change the color of the text, you can use any of the last two tools.

If you swipe up at the bottom of the editor, a panel with color correction filters will open. So far there are only 5 of them. The filter is applied only to the image, but not to the text written in the editor.

At the bottom of the editor, you can add a caption to the file.

To replace the file, click on the icon of two squares with a plus. To publish a status, you need to click on the arrow in the green circle.

How to set text status

Click on the pencil icon in the gray circle (in the lower right corner).

Writing a text.

There are 3 additional tools available in the editor:

Smilies. Here the emoticons are different from the first editor - these are the same as when chatting in WhatsApp.

GIF. Located in the section with smiles, only at the bottom of the library you need to click on the GIF icon (downloaded from the Giphy website). There is a search for gifs. nine0003

Fonts (letter T). Click on it and the font changes. There are 5 fonts available.

Background color (paint icon). There is no palette here where you can choose a specific color - just click in a row, and each time the background will change. There are 21 colors available in the editor.

Status settings

You can configure who can view your statuses, as well as enable / disable read receipts. To do this, go to the status section and click on 3 vertical dots in the upper right corner (not opposite the status, but above). nine0003

There is a "Status Privacy" section here. By default, all your contacts see new statuses, but you can exclude some of them (“Contacts except . ..” item) or set up automatic sending to a specific contact from the list (“Share with…” item).

We return to the menu, under the item "Status Privacy" there is simply "Settings".

Here we separately go to "Account", then "Privacy". Below is the "Status" tab - in it you can configure the visibility of statuses in the same way as in the previous paragraph. Even lower - "Reading reports". Make sure the slider is set to ON to be able to see the number of status views. nine0003

How to share the status

The status can be sent in a personal message of the messenger. We go to the section with statuses. Opposite your click on 3 horizontal dots.

An additional window opens. Click on the 3 dots again. You can forward, share or delete the status.

The "Forward" button allows you to send the status inside the WhatsApp messenger to any contact from the list.

The "Share" button allows you to send the status outside the messenger. That is, you can talk about the status of the audience in other instant messengers and social networks. How it looks like - click on the "Share ..." button, select Telegram in the list and send the status to the selected contact or channel / group. It is sent as a simple picture without a hint of WhatsApp. nine0003

In the same menu, you can delete your status, or it will automatically disappear after 24 hours.

P.S. If you delete a status that was sent in a private message, it will be removed from the correspondence.

How to find out the number of views of your status

Click on 3 dots opposite the status, to the right of the avatar you can see the number of views, and when the status was posted.

When you have many statuses, they are arranged in a list and opposite each there is an icon with an eye and the number of views. nine0003

Views only within WhatsApp are counted.

How to see someone else's status

There are 2 ways:

  1. View in the section of all statuses. Your statuses are at the top of the list in the "Status" section. Aliens are below, in the "Recent" subsection. If it's empty, it means your contacts haven't posted any statuses in the last 24 hours.

  1. If a status has been shared with you in private messages, you can open and view it in the correspondence. nine0014

How to find out who viewed your status

Open your status, at the bottom there will be a number of views. We click on them - an additional panel opens, which indicates which of the WhatsApp contacts looked at the status.

How to respond to someone else's status

Open someone else's status in the status section. At the bottom there will be a Reply button. Swipe up and write a message.

Conclusion

WhatsApp statuses are the second stories, but since the main purpose of the messenger is correspondence, few people use the statuses (there is no special need).
