If you're an Instagram content creator, here's some good news. In case you haven't heard, Instagram just got an upgrade to Stories. Previously, you could only upload clips of up to 15 seconds. But with the new update, creators can now upload videos 4 times the length.

RIP!

Sending images on WhatsApp can be a hassle for some of us as the messaging app compresses almost everything you want to share. However, things might change soon as it's spotted that the platform is currently developing features that let users choose the quality of images and videos sending out in chats.
