Auto-Save Statuses to Your Gallery on Android

To auto-save statuses to your gallery on Android, install a status saver, grant read access to the status folder, and turn on auto-save of new statuses. StatusPing saves new statuses the next time you open the app and copies them to your gallery folder, so they do not disappear after 24 hours.

It saves them the next time you open the app, so open it within 24 hours of a status being posted. If you need to keep business updates, see how to save WhatsApp Business statuses.
