First, browse your file or photo you want to send in any file manager.
Rename it from any extension to " .txt ".
e.g. puppy.jpg to puppy.txt
After renaming it, simple send it via whatsapp message.
Note: Your friend need to rename it again to the original file extension to access it.
This one is the best, I have been using this long back when the whatsapp came. In this trick, you will be able to save your personal stuff, data, remainders, links, notes or anything you want. Your imagination is the limit.
