Please be aware that they do not save in Album, as such. Album simply scans your storage for any valid image and video files then displays them. Unfortunately the .nomedia trick will not work with Whatsapp either and as such I am unaware of any method to stop album from displaying Whatsapp images sorry.

here is the trick for it.

through a file manager app go to whatsapp folder, then media, then whatsapp images, in this folder u can see a sent folder, there is file names ".nomedia" copy this file and paste it in whatsapp images folder.

restart your phone and it will be done!!

hope i helped u!!

Please be aware that this will tend to work for a short while with Whatsapp, however it will change the folder name by itself and the images will reappear; this tends to occur after a reboot.

i haven't said to change the folder name, i had asked to copy paste that .nomedia file in the folder.

How can this be possible? It doesn't even make sense that the Album app scans and places all images in one mixed folder, in disorder. I should have the option to select the folders or apps that show pictures in the Album. Not having this option is a step backwards for mankind!... And Sony.
