Whatsapp media name

Why is the Whatsapp media copied from my iphone (iphone 11) to my windows pc has weird naming like HTIH3641.jpg? Having random naming instead of usual IMG_XXXX.jpg format. Its really annoying and cant find any files because of this reason. It would be really helpful if it had an option that displays media info rather than all those useless junk in the share tab...!

Windows, Windows 6

Whatsapp and your window pc has nothing to do with Apple or your iphone 11.


If you have an issue with the naming either contact whatsapp or Microsoft.
