What Causes Popping Noise In Knees While Doing Squats?

hello. I have recently started to take up bodyweight exercises. I can do around 20 pull up and 50 press ups. However, i read that if the legs are not trained the upper body will be restricted in size as the body will keep everything in proportion. But when i do squats, my knees make a popping noise. Is this safe, there is no pain in my knees but when i carry out the exercise the sound becomes louder permanently

If there is popping noise that is not painful, you don't need to worry. You worry only if there is pain, swelling.
