Other SmartphonesI've just moved to android from iphone. And have managed to move all my whatsapp messages and media to my samsung.
The photos, annoyingly, have been saved in the gallery rather than in the body of the whatsapp messages. I want to move some of these to a password protected app and have tried a couple (Photo vault & Keepsafe) but these photos do not appear when I try to import, nor to they appear if I want to import to my laptop. Even trying to create a seperate album for them in the gallery doesn't remove them from the main 'pictures' tab.
Are they in a different format or something? Is it possible to convert them?
Also how do I stop whatsapp photos being automatically saved to my gallery.
Thanks
