- Open WhatsApp: Ensure that your device has the latest version of WhatsApp installed. Launch the app by tapping on its icon from your home screen or app drawer.
- Select a Chat: Once in WhatsApp, go to the chat where you want to upload the clip. This could be an individual chat or a group conversation.
