WhatsTools lets You Share Different File Format on WhatsApp & other IM

At present instant messengers totally changed the way we communicate with each other, instant messengers are there for a long time, when I started to use the internet for the first time i came to know that there is something called Yahoo Messenger, G-talk, and Orkut which let us communicate in real time using text messages, at that point in time there was no Android and other smartphones, and we had to use our computers mostly, also when it needed to send any file we were doing it over the emails.

Nowadays everything has been changed since the smartphones came into existence especially the Android smartphone, it is expected that mobile will be the primary device to connect to the internet by 2020,  also, there are tons of instant messengers are available which does offers different features apart from real-time communication, but few instant messengers went too far in term of popularity like WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, Line, Wechat etc, you can send photos, videos, contacts, location, stickers, and emoji but when it come to file type and size every IM has restriction, like you can’t send bigger file than 16 MB on WhatsApp also you can’t send pdf and other document files over IM.

If any IM allows you to share bigger files then there will be a huge burden on their servers, which will cost them a big chunk of the amount and there will be frequent outrage.
