Increase WhatsApp Video Status Limit Of 30 Seconds
So, let’s know how to increase the WhatsApp status time limit. These methods will help you to increase the WhatsApp Status Video limit of 30 Seconds.
1) Splitting the Videos
If you want to share a video status of more than 30 seconds, you can consider splitting the videos. In this method, you must break your video into 30 seconds and upload it in a sequence. Let’s say you want to upload a video of 2 Minutes, which means 120 seconds. So, you need to split the video into 4 parts with 30 seconds each. Once broken, upload the videos in a sequence. You can use any video splitter app like Story Split, story cutter, etc. This doesn’t remove the limit, but it does the job well. The best thing about this method is that you no longer need to worry about an account ban or any other security issue.
2) Use the Inbuilt Video Splitter of WhatsApp
While uploading the video into WhatsApp status, you will notice a timer on the screen. So, it would help if you chose which time slot in the particular video you want to upload. If you don’t want to rely upon any third-party app to split the videos, then you can use the built-in video cutter to separate videos.
After selecting the time slot, WhatsApp automatically cuts off the chosen part and sets it as Video status. So, this is how you can use the built-in video splitter of WhatsApp to increase the WhatsApp Status Video limit. You can repeat the same process to upload a full-length video.
3) Using WhatsApp Mods
Well, plenty of WhatsApp mods are available on the internet, like GBWhatsApp, WhatsApp Plus, YoWhatsApp, etc., which remove the time restriction on video status. However, using a modded version of WhatsApp will lead to an account ban. Another thing is that WhatsApp Mods often comes with malicious files which can damage smartphone. So, make sure to use WhatsApp mods at your own risk. If you have a rooted Android smartphone, you can use WhatsApp Tweaks to increase the WhatsApp Status time limit.
