Various information can be shared via the WhatsApp status.
This can be an important notice from your colleague, a funny video or any other
educational stuff. What happens when you want to save what has been shared on
WhatsApp statuses?
Here, we shall discuss the various
ways to save a Whatsapp Status.
Using Modified Whatsapp Versions
Most people know GB Whatsapp as a
modified version of WhatsApp. There exist others like Yo Whatsapp, FM Whatsapp,
Whatsapp Plus, among others.
These modified versions normally
offer a feature on the WhatsApp statuses to simply click and download the
WhatsApp status onto your phone. These versions are however
illegitimate versions of WhatsApp and therefore you are advised to
use at your own risk.
Taking
a screenshot
If the status is text or image, one
simple way of saving it to your gallery is by simply taking a screenshot of the
status. It will then be found in the photo gallery under the screenshots
category.
Using
the File Manager
All the picture statuses you view and
videos under 10seconds are saved automatically in the file manager. The reason
you cannot see them is that they are hidden files. You, therefore, have to
locate the file and transfer it to an unhidden location. Follow the steps
below:
- Open your File Manager
- Press “option” key 》settings 》check “view
hidden files”
- Go back to the File Manager and scroll to the WhatsApp folder.
- Open “Media” folder
- Usually, the first folder you should see is “.statuses”
- That folder contains all the viewed statuses over the 24hr period.
Take note that they automatically delete themselves after 24hr.
- To save the viewed file for future, move/copy it/them to another
folder of your choice.
In case you view someone’s status and
you want to re-share it on your own status, or send it to someone else,
follow the above steps to save it into your gallery.
