Hi there,
I think this is something all of the android users have noticed at least once. But I couldn't find an answer to it so I thought I'll ask it here. If it's already been answered then I'm very sorry.
If you download an image in Whatsapp that a contact sent you it is downloaded in the 'Whatsapp Images' directory. This directory is accessable through the Gallery or Quickpic or whatever.
When you decide to send that same image to another contact, Whatsapp creates a new file in the 'Whatsapp Images' directory while it's the same image. So then you have a duplicate file.
Each time you send or receive the very same image it gets duplicated by Whatsapp. Some popular images are already 8 times in my 'Whatsapp Images' directory. I think this is very annoying.
I tried a duplicate file finder. That works (but not always as good as I wish), and I have to do it everytime I send something to multiple contacts. Why can't Whatsapp detect this?
If there is a solution to this, please enlighten me. If you are not experiencing this at all but think to know what I'm doing wrong, again, please enlighten me!
Thanks in advance.
What does the develloper say about this , i've experienced it too but never did something with it

My problem too
I've sent an e-mail to the WhatsApp customer service. Hope they answer soon
What did they say?
Was just searching for the answer to this when I found your post
same problem in my phone too but for now i unistalled it waiting for new update hoping that bug fix ^^
Hello, I am running CleanRom 5.6 on my verizon galaxy sIII and everything is working great. However I have one problem. The stock message app works great but it does not allow for group test message to show up on one message i.e. you get individual message instead of getting one single message. I solved this by installing go sms pro or handcent. NOw the problem that I am having is that when people send me a .gif image file I can see the picture but it is not moving. I have tried opening under the stock text app, go sms pro, and handcent but no one them work. At have had it working a few time but the majority of times it does not work i.e. the image does not move. I have searched online a lot but there is no one consensus on how to fix this problem. I hope someone know what I am talking about and can help me because I am not the only one who is having the problem. Thank you.
p.s. I do not know whether the problem is being caused by an iphone user sending the .gif file or whether that does not matter.

Im not 100% sure here but pretty sure the Android OS doesnt fully support .gif anymore at least? seems like alot of people cant only get the first frame of a gif to run on their phones now.
Hi, I've read the manual and can't figure out how to put a pic with my contacts. My old Droid X and others was easy, menu>edit>photo. I've long pressed everything I could. When I get to "take photo or from gallery" it says "unable to save photo edits". I didn't even try to edit but touched on photo and got that message. Little circle spinning on pic, like trying to load. I hope it's not the phone, I've got less than 10 days to return it.
Any help for this phone will greatly be appreciated!

How are you storing your contacts? For me im using Google to back up my contacts and when i go to Contact list I choose a contact click on them and choose edit and i am able to add a photo.
Two threads for the same problem?
Oh my dear, open a third one, maybe this helps more.
Hi,
I just received the KitKat update for my phone in which i didnt like at first... And well now i HATE it as it just caused me a 48 hour argument with my girlfriend.
Anyway, the issue is exactly as i have described... After the update photos that i have previously deleted now magically reappeared in my Gallery... Including the ones of my ex which my girlfriend found which caused a HUGE argument with my current partner.. Why did this happen?
I dont backup my phone and i dont have it synced with my google account... Ive very concerned with my privacy and dont want my information stored with Google and all that Jazz. I dont have the photos stored to my SIM card nor do i have them located elsewhere other than the Gallery.
How can i be sure that what i delete actually gets deleted? This is extremely strange and a little violating to me.
Appreciate the help... Save me from future grief please!
Guystillintrouble.
Aliens...
If they did that, I guarantee you have them backed up somewhere.

Go to your Google account with a web browser or install Google+ from the Play Store (you're looking for an app called Photos with a pinwheel icon) and make sure your photos are permanently deleted
Thank you kindly CWG.
I removed Google photos long ago when I first saw it install with an update. I tried logging onto my Google account and the only photo I saw was the one I have set as my profile picture for google+.
Definitely at a loss here.

It usually creates an additional folder, where the images get stored.
If you can't see them trough album, then try File commander-pictures.
They should show somewhere there.
Have you tried restarting the phone?
Try to download an additional galery app from playstore.
If they are still not displayed, then just doa factory reset on the phone, of course backup any important data before that and then see what happens. I've never heard of something like that, but it might just be a glitch.
Try a different gallery app like Quickpic
