How to Save WhatsApp Status Images and Videos on Android

28 August, 2019 — James Brandon

The status feature on WhatsApp has greatly improved how people use WhatsApp. Today, WhatsApp users can upload photos and short videos that will disappear automatically after 24 hours. By using WhatsApp status, you can easily share your memories and funny images and videos with your contacts.

You may want to save some status images and videos into your phone for future reference and to share with your friends outside WhatsApp. WhatsApp itself does not have a download feature that allows you to download statuses but using third-party apps, you can easily download and store statuses into your phones internal memory.

Status Saver

Status saver is an easy-to-use app that allows you to gain access and download all the statuses from your WhatsApp account. The downloaded files are stored in a folder within your phone’s internal storage. Status saver is the most used app among other apps that support status saving.

To use Status Saver to save WhatsApp status images and videos:

• Download and install the app on your phone

• Launch the app by tapping on the icon

• On the popup message that will appear, tap GRANT PERMISSION to allow the app to access and read the files in your internal memory.

• Once you grant permission, you will see all WhatsApp status images on the main page.

• Tap any image or video that you wish to save, and tap the + button that appears on the bottom right corner of the screen
