How to download any WhatsApp status I like

Open your WhatsApp, go to the status tab and view any status you wish to download, be it video, gif, or pictures.


Example above

After viewing it, then close your WhatsApp, head to your ES Explorer and open it.

Now, why I chose this file manager is that it brings you every latest addition to your phone in one click, it's quite easy.

After opening it, the first screen you will see is the screen in the picture below.




This screen contains the recycle bin, all your images, music, videos, files and document, in one categorized place, no matter what folder you stored them.

In the screen above, tap the Logger option.




This is the logger screen in my phone, if you look closely, you will notice that the status we viewed earlier is showing there, now long press it to open more selections, more options will appear under the Explorer screen as seen in the image above, now select copy, move to any folder you wish, and paste it there.

For those using other features explorers, you have to navigate to storage/sdcard0/WhatsApp/Media/.Statuses in order to see all the statuses.

Now check your gallery, wolla, you just downloaded your desired status.
