WhatsApp, the ubiquitous messaging platform, is expanding its video status capabilities. Previously limited to 30 seconds, video statuses can now reach a maximum duration of one minute for select beta users. This change brings WhatsApp in line with competitors like Instagram and Messenger, both of which offer 60-second video status options.


The current status update method on WhatsApp allows users to either record a video directly within the app or upload an existing video from their phone’s storage. In both scenarios, the previous maximum length of 30 seconds often proved restrictive for users. Capturing lengthier moments or conveying more complex messages.

The reported doubling of the video status limit, as observed by WABetaInfo. it’s a platform known for tracking WhatsApp updates, which addresses this limitation. Users within the beta program can now record or upload one-minute video clips directly to their statuses. This eliminates the need to chop longer videos into multiple, potentially disjointed segments.
