WhatsApp: Stop Photos and Video Automatically Saving to Your Camera Roll. Also Group Privacy

Have you ever had that message on WhatsApp with a photo or video and it has ended up in your camera roll? Although I had switched this feature off on my iPhone I had neglected to do the same on my wife’s iPhone. My excuse is that she has only just started using WhatsApp. Well she got a message with lots of photos and she wanted to know how they all ended up in her camera roll. When I showed it her how to do it, and it is so easy, I figured I had better share this with you too.

One other thing that has cropped up is that WhatsApp did an update and it seems that by default you can now be added to anyone’s group. Hey, we don’t want that happening, well I don’t and certainly my friends are up in arms about it.

Anyway I made a short video to show you how to sort both of these out.

Stay safe people.
