WhatsApp ‘forward media with caption’ feature is now available for Android users – Times of India

According to a report by WABetaInfo, “WhatsApp wants to ensure that you are aware of this new feature by offering you the ability to remove the caption from the media before forwarding it. In our opinion, this is very important as it allows users to maintain control over the messages they send.”
WhatsApp’s ‘forward media with caption’ feature was earlier available for iOS users. The feature allows users to forward images, videos, GIFs, and documents with a caption. There is an option to remove the caption as well.
What is ‘Forward media with caption’ feature
The feature will allow users to add a caption to media files while sharing it with friends and family. The feature will help users to quickly search old files by just typing in keywords from the caption.
When users forward an image with a caption, a new view will appear at the bottom of the screen, letting them know whether the feature is enabled on their account. Furthermore, a dismiss button is available to delete the caption from the image before forwarding the message if the user decides they do not want to forward it.

WhatsApp rolls out other new features
WhatsApp has recently introduced several features for Android and iOS users, including Call Links, in-chat Polls, Communities, Message Yourself and others.
The WhatsApp Calls Links feature allows users to create a link for voice and video calls. WhatsApp recently added the Communities tab to the app to manage and organise conversations on the platform. There is also a “Message Yourself” feature that allows users to send messages to themselves. This can be useful for to-do lists, making notes and more.
