Why am I not able to send any pictures or download any pics from WhatsApp?

• Check Your Internet Connection-When you're having difficulties using an app that requires the internet to work, you should check that your internet connection is working correctly. This could be the reason why your WhatsApp images are not downloading. Try using other apps on your phone and check if they can access the internet. You can also try visiting a webpage on your preferred browser.
• Examine the Storage on Your Device-If your photographs and videos aren't downloading on WhatsApp, try the second option. If you don't have enough space on your phone's internal or external storage, you won't be able to download files from WhatsApp or other apps. It's a no-brainer if you can't download WhatsApp images and space is a concern. If you try to download a 50MB video and your smartphone only has 40MB of free storage space, WhatsApp will not finish the download.
• You might either navigate to Settings > About phone or use the Settings app's search box to look for storage.
• Follow these steps to enable WhatsApp access to your storage. Keep in mind, however, that the procedure will differ based on your device. Allow storage rights by going to Settings > Applications > Manage apps > WhatsApp > App permissions > Storage.
