Although WhatsApp is not a social network, yet it lets users’ stories just as we have in Facebook or Instagram. These stories or status updates can be photos, videos, GIFs, texts, and links which can be put up for twenty-four hours after which it gets deleted.

Now there are some users who want to put up their favourite YouTube videos as Status updates. This can be easily done in mainly two ways:
