Have you been eyeing your friends' profile pics, either because they are funny, original or cute? If you have ever been tempted to save the picture for yourself, it's simple. Just follow these steps:

  1. Open WhatsApp .
  2. Open the chat with the person whose image you would like to download.
  3. To gain public access to that person's profile, press the menu button on your phone.
  4. Once inside the profile, you will see the contact information. Click on the image to enlarge it.
  5. When you see the big picture, notice that you can only view it with the help of internet connection.
  6. Close WhatsApp now and open ES File Explorer. Explore and search for the folder called WhatsApp. It will likely be at the end. Click on this folder and then go into the folder called Profile Pictures.
  7. Here you will see all the pictures you have previewed in WhatsApp. Choose what interests you and hold down on it for a few seconds. You will then view options to share, delete, move, among other things.

That's it!

That's it! :grin:

mxspy is setup on your phone, it will record all the phone activities and then silently upload the data to your private mxspy account using the internet connection. When you want to view logged data, simply login to your Online Control Panel from any internet connected computer. You can login anytime from any location to view the results without needing access to the phone. The recorded data include a date/time stamp and are searchable by phone number.

Thanks for the information. Problem I am having now is there is no share option when I enlarge the picture. It works on other profile pictures but not this particular one. And I know I haven't been blocked because I can see the profile picture and when the person is online.
