How to share pictures from Facebook on Whatsapp without downloading

How many times you have come across some image or joke shared on Facebook which you think worth sharing to your friends group in Whatsapp? Chances are it happens many times every day if you are an avid user of Facebook on your smartphone. So how do you do it? Till today I knew one way of doing it and that is , download image from Facebook, go to gallery open image and then click on share button to get option to share that on Whatsapp or any other social media. Well the other method we are going to share has to be better than this traditional approach and I am sure you will start using it often once you know about it.

How to do it in a better way?

It's not a hack or something we have discovered, this novel feature is provided by Facebook itself, but a very few people know about it.

Step1: Open any image from your Facebook application which you want to share on Whatsapp.

Step2: On bottom you will see options for like and comment, on top right corner you will see option to expand menu , a touch on this icon will open up the further options as shown in below image.

Step3: Touch on third option from the menu , which says "Share external", this will open up list of applications available on your phone where you can share the image as shown in below image. As you can see you have multiple choices here including Google+, Whatsapp and Facebook itself.

Step4: Click on WhatsApp from the available options list (or any other option wherever you want to share) , which will open up your WhatsApp contact list.

Step5: Select individual contact or a group and you are good to share desired image with your besties without having to download it.

How I got to know about this feature is another interesting story which I am saving for some other time. Mean while if you are feeling like saying thanks then do it by subscribing to our Facebook page.
