It looks like a translucent black rectangular overlay that happens to line up with the chest to me.
Why they have it I'm not sure...
That's what it is. The same rectangle exists on pictures of the ocean I recently sent to someone on Whatsapp. Just a weird UI bug I guess.
This is not what it is. You can see the bottom of the v neck in the picture on the right. The cleavage was added to skin that was visible in the original shot. It is not skin that was below the image on the right.
Yes, Whatsapp adds a black rectangle to the bottom left of the image thumbnail for all images. I see it every morning when I send a picture of today's calendar puzzle to my family.
Dafuq, its real. This is such a weird thing to do. And it you open the image full size, the black rectangle is gone.
It exists to make the time in the lower right corner more visible, but some bug caused it to be aligned with the left border, causing this ugly effect
OMG these are fun!

I missed bedsheet spreadsheet, thank you for posting that.
I was also unable to get bedsheet spreadsheet.
I couldn't get that one either. TBF I think "numerical" is a poor description of a cell that has a letter involved, and would've been more accurate with "alphanumeric".
All correct so far.
where did you get that? i want one!
It is the 2025 Mensa Puzzle Calendar.
thank you!
I wonder if itβs some kind of tracking watermark like printers have.
It should be right-aligned so that the timestamp and status is visible against a light background. But it's left-aligned due to a bug.
I misunderstood your statement. I thought you meant a solid black rectangle along the entire bottom of the image. The picture you posted shows me that you mean a transparent black rectangle in the bottom left corner. The edge of that rectangle lines up exactly with where OPs apparent cleavage appears. The black shirt and their picture hid the rest of the effect. Thank you for helping me see it.
