I have an iPhone 6 and want to transfer 1000+ Photos from my Whatsapp Media file to my computer. However, I did not enable the auto-download, and the photos don't appear in my Photo App. I've tried going into my iPhone itself, but I can only see the photos in the Photo App.
Since you didn't download WhatsApp photos to your iPhone, you can use a WhatsApp transfer tool to transfer WhatsApp photos on your computer. EaseUS MobiMover can back up WhatsApp messages, images, videos, and contacts from your iPhone to your computer.
To Transfer WhatsApp Photos from iPhone to Computer:
Step 1. Install EaseUS MobiMover on your computer. Launch it and choose Social App Manager > WhatsApp.
Step 2. Select Backup and connect your device to the computer.
Step 3. Adjust the backup path and click Back Up. When it finishes, click View to check the backup file, including your WhatsApp photos.
It is suggested that the auto-download feature in WhatsApp be turned on to automatically save photos, audio, videos, and documents when using Wi-Fi or cellular data. In this case, all the saved photos will be in the Photo app, and you can back them up easily to iCloud. If you want to save them on your PC, just download the ones you want to your computer from the iCloud website.
To turn on Auto-Download in WhatsApp:
Step 1. Go to WhatsApp Settings and choose Storage and Data.
Step 2. Locate Media Auto-Download and select the type of media you want to download automatically.
Step 3. Configure the settings and select Never, Wi-Fi, or Wi-Fi and Cellular. Wi-Fi is your best choice if you have a limited data plan.
