How people watch on WhatsApp Status
Status and messages are personal and quick. A warm, simple clip, such as a greeting or a shop offer, feels right for a chat.
Set your video up for WhatsApp Status
- Choose vertical 9:16
- Keep the file small: choose Full HD
- Use a short voiceover for a greeting
What to show first
- One message, one image
- Keep the length short
An example you can adapt
Example sentence: A hand-drawn thank-you card with soft light on a wooden table, slow zoom, vertical.
Example voiceover: "Thank you for your order. We hope you love it." That script is 10 words, so the video falls in the "Up to 5 seconds" length and costs 1 credit in Full HD or 2 credits in 4K.
Mistakes to avoid on WhatsApp Status
- Sending large files that take a long time to load on a phone
- Messaging people who have not agreed to hear from you
Before you post on WhatsApp Status
- Check WhatsApp Status's current rules for AI-generated content, and label your video if asked to.
- Check that the file is not too large to send
- Only send to people who want to receive it
