WhatsApp automatically saves media to your gallery. That sounds like a good idea, but when you’re part of multiple groups, this can take up a lot of storage space. Here’s how you can stop WhatsApp from auto-saving images.
WhatsApp自动将媒体保存到您的画廊。 听起来不错，但是当您属于多个组时，这可能会占用大量存储空间。 这是从自动保存图像中阻止WhatsApp的方法。

By default, all photos and videos you receive are saved directly to the Camera Roll in the Photos app on your iPhone.
默认情况下，您收到的所有照片和视频都会直接保存到iPhone上“照片”应用程序的“相机胶卷”中。
To disable the feature, open the WhatsApp app and go to the “Settings” tab. Here, select the “Chats” option.
要禁用该功能，请打开WhatsApp应用程序，然后转到“设置”标签。 在这里，选择“聊天”选项。
From this screen, tap on the toggle next to “Save to Camera Roll” to turn off the auto-saving feature.
在此屏幕上，点击“保存到相机胶卷”旁边的开关以关闭自动保存功能。
Photos and videos will still be downloaded automatically on your iPhone, but they’ll stay in the WhatsApp memory.
照片和视频仍会自动下载到您的iPhone中，但仍保留在WhatsApp的内存中。
If you want to manually save media to the Camera Roll, open the photo or video and tap on the “Share” button.
如果要手动将媒体保存到相机胶卷，请打开照片或视频，然后点击“共享”按钮。
Here, tap on the “Save” option.
在这里，点击“保存”选项。
As we mentioned above, the WhatsApp app is still downloading photos and videos, it’s just keeping them in its own app storage. But this can quickly add up. If you’d like to stop media downloading right at the source, go to the “Settings” tab and select the “Data and Storage Usage” option.
如上所述，WhatsApp应用仍在下载照片和视频，只是将它们保存在自己的应用存储中。 但这很快就会加起来。 如果您想直接从源头停止媒体下载，请转到“设置”标签，然后选择“数据和存储使用情况”选项。
Here, select the “Photos” option.
在这里，选择“照片”选项。
From this screen, switch to “Never.”
在此屏幕上，切换到“从不”。
You can now do the same for the Audio, Videos, and Documents sections as well.
现在，您也可以对“音频”，“视频”和“文档”部分执行相同的操作。
Now, when you receive any media, you’ll see a “Download” button. Tap on it to download the media.
现在，当您收到任何媒体时，您将看到一个“下载”按钮。 点击它以下载媒体。

The process for Android is slightly different. Open the WhatsApp app and tap on the three-dot menu button from the top toolbar.
Android的过程略有不同。 打开WhatsApp应用程序，然后点击顶部工具栏上的三点菜单按钮。
Here, tap on the “Settings” option.
在这里，点击“设置”选项。
From the Settings page, tap on the “Data and Storage Usage” section.
在“设置”页面上，点击“数据和存储使用情况”部分。
In the “Media Auto-Download” section, you’ll see three different options for mobile data, Wi-Fi, and roaming.
在“媒体自动下载”部分，您将看到三个不同的选项，分别用于移动数据，Wi-Fi和漫游。
Go through each section and uncheck the Photos, Audio, Video, and Documents options to disable auto-download.
仔细检查每个部分，然后取消选中“照片，音频，视频和文档”选项以禁用自动下载。
If you want to enable auto-download, but you don’t want the media to show up in your Gallery app, you can do so from the “Chat” section in settings.
如果要启用自动下载，但又不希望媒体显示在Gallery应用程序中，则可以从设置的“聊天”部分中进行。
Here, tap on the toggle next to the “Media Visibility” option. Now, newly downloaded media won’t show up in your Gallery app.
在这里，点击“媒体可见性”选项旁边的切换按钮。 现在，新下载的媒体将不会显示在您的Gallery应用中。
Speaking of WhatsApp groups that end up taking a lot of storage space, a new feature lets you stop anyone from adding you to a group without your consent.
谈到最终会占用大量存储空间的WhatsApp组，一项新功能使您可以阻止任何人未经您的同意将您添加到组中 。
