two. Doing so will display a menu of options grouped according to four criteria: clight, dark, solid colors and My Photos. The latter, as its name indicates, allows you to enter the mobile gallery and select your own image.

3. The “light” and “dark” options have a series of pre-selected images with photos of landscapes, objects and nature that can be displayed in light or dark contrasts as appropriate.

Finally, the “solid colors” alternative allows you to choose between a series of shades, without images or objects in the background.

Choose what content is downloaded

The good thing is that the messaging service has an option to prevent all the material from being downloaded.

In this sense, it is possible to select what will be downloaded and what will not. Or it is even possible to choose not to download any material received in this way. For that it is necessary to enter the section “Auto Download”following the steps below:

1. Login to WhatsApp.

two. At the top right select the icon Setting represented with the three points vertically and press Settings.

3. Go to Storage and Data and scroll to the option automatic download.

Four. There you can configure the files that can be downloaded with mobile data or with wi fi. It only remains to open each of these tools and remove the check mark from all the options. This prevents files from being downloaded automatically, regardless of the type of network to which the cell phone is connected.
