    Noooope, whatsapp by default downloads images and videos sent to you. I know cuz I have to disable it on my device and clean the downloaded shit from my grandpa’s device. Grandpa does want it to keep downloading.

    Edit: Fixed spelling. Misclicked almost evert N with B, lol

      More to the point, anything which displays an image from a remote source has to download the image in order to do so. Whether or not you choose to store that image somewhere permanently, it was still downloaded either way.
