How Can I Set Full Pic on WhatsApp Profile?

WhatsApp is one of the most popular instant messaging applications used to connect with people around the world. It is an easy-to-use platform that allows users to send and receive messages, videos, audios, photos and other types of attachments. Users can also set their profile picture on WhatsApp to make their profile more attractive.

But many people don’t know how to set full picture on WhatsApp as the app does not provide any option for it. Fortunately, there are some simple steps which can be followed to set a full picture as your WhatsApp profile photo.

The first step would be to open your favourite image editing application and resize the image to fit the dimensions of your WhatsApp profile photo. The dimensions should be square and should be between 90X90 and 4096X4096 pixels in size. Once you have resized the image, save it in either JPG or PNG format and then rename it as ‘whatsapp_profile_photo’ with no spaces or special characters in its name.

After that, open your file manager app, locate the ‘whatsapp_profile_photo’ file and then move it into the ‘WhatsApp/Profile Pictures’ folder on your device’s internal storage or external storage (SD card). Once you have done that, go back to WhatsApp and tap on the three-dotted menu icon at the top right corner of your screen and select ‘Settings’ from the drop down menu.

Next, tap on ‘Profile Photo’ in Settings section which will take you to your WhatsApp profile page where you can see a preview of all available profile pictures which includes the recently uploaded ‘whatsapp_profile_photo’ file as well. Now simply select this file by tapping on it and then hit ‘Done’ at the top right corner of your screen to save changes.

Your new full pic will now appear as your WhatsApp profile photo! This process may seem complicated at first but once you get a hang of it, setting a full picture as your WhatsApp profile photo will become much easier for you.

Conclusion

Setting a full picture as your WhatsApp profile photo is easy once you understand how it works – simply resize an image so that it fits within given dimensions (90X90 – 4096X4096) , rename it as ‘whatsapp_profile_photo’ , move it into ‘WhatsApp/Profile Pictures’ folder & select this file from within settings & hit ‘Done’!
