No more scrolling through chats to find lost photos or documents on WhatsApp. The Media Hub feature is here.

Are you tired of scrolling through long chats to find photos, videos, or documents on WhatsApp? Now, your trouble is about to end. WhatsApp has introduced a new 'Media Hub' feature, making it easy to find all photos, videos, and files in one place.

Meta's WhatsApp has now introduced a new and very useful feature for users: 'Media Hub.' This feature is currently being rolled out to select users on WhatsApp Web and the Mac App. With Media Hub, users will no longer need to search for files, photos, or videos in different chats. This feature allows them to view all media content, including photos, videos, documents, GIFs, and links, in one place. This feature will be especially helpful for those who use WhatsApp to share work or study-related files.

What new features will be available in Media Hub?

According to a report by WABetaInfo, the new Media Hub feature will appear as a dedicated button in WhatsApp's sidebar. From here, users will be able to directly access all their shared media. This hub includes several important features, such as a search bar, which allows users to search for a file by name, date, or caption. It also has multi-select support, allowing you to delete, forward, or export multiple files at once. The Sort by Date and Sort by Size features will easily organize files by date or size, making it easier to free up storage by deleting large files.

Why is this feature important for Indian users?

This WhatsApp Media Hub feature will currently only display recently shared media, giving users quick access to everyday files. This feature will be especially beneficial in countries like India, where people share important things like office documents, Aadhaar card copies, payment receipts, tickets, or college notes on WhatsApp on a daily basis. This will save users the hassle of having to go back to old chats to find files every time. This new feature was first spotted in development in May 2025 and is now gradually being tested among users.

When will all users get this feature?

Overall, this move by WhatsApp could prove to be very convenient for users. As the app's use for professional and educational purposes increases, the number of media files is also rapidly increasing. The Media Hub feature is a smart solution that will help users find files, manage storage, and keep their digital work organized. This feature is expected to reach more users in the coming weeks. WhatsApp has also recently been testing features like the Apple Watch App and Strict Account Settings Mode, which will further improve security and user experience.
