Status Saver Not Showing Statuses? Android Checks

If a status saver is not showing statuses on Android, check folder permission, whether the status is still within its 24 hours, and whether you have reopened the app.

Status saver not working? StatusPing lets you view and save statuses on Android before they disappear. Get it on Google Play.

When a status saver app shows an empty screen, check folder access, the 24-hour window, and reopen the app.

Steps to check when statuses do not appear

Check folder access permissions. Open the app and grant read access to the folder WhatsApp already wrote when asked. Android asks you to pick one folder where statuses are kept.
Check if 24 hours have passed. Statuses expire after 24 hours. If an update was posted over a day ago, it is gone.
Open the app again. StatusPing's auto-save saves new statuses the next time you open it, so a status that arrived while the app was closed appears after you reopen it, as long as it is within 24 hours.
Reopen the app and look at the status list again.

FAQ

Why is my status saver not showing status updates?

A status saver may show an empty list if folder access was not granted. Grant access to the folder WhatsApp already wrote, and reopen the saver.

Why did an older status disappear from the list?

Statuses expire 24 hours after posting. Once those 24 hours run out, it is gone and cannot be saved.

When does auto-save run?

StatusPing's auto-save runs when you open or return to the app. A status that arrives while the app is closed is saved the next time you open it, if it is still within 24 hours.

No. StatusPing requires no account or sign-in. It reads the local folder on your phone and copies kept items to your gallery folder.

Get StatusPing on Google Play to view statuses with an hours-left countdown and save them to your gallery folder on Android.
