WhatsApp Business stores its statuses in a separate folder from personal WhatsApp. If your saver only reads the personal folder, Business statuses will not show up. Here is how to save WhatsApp Business statuses with Statusly.
Save a WhatsApp Business status
- Choose the WA Business source — In the saver app, switch the source to WhatsApp Business so it scans the correct folder.
- Connect the Business status folder — Grant access to the WhatsApp Business folder under Android/media/com.whatsapp.w4b. You authorize only that folder.
- Scan, preview, and save — View the Business status in WhatsApp Business first, then scan, preview, and save to your gallery.
Why Business statuses live in a different folder
WhatsApp Business runs under the package com.whatsapp.w4b, so its cached statuses are stored separately at Android/media/com.whatsapp.w4b/WhatsApp Business/Media/.Statuses. Selecting the right source ensures the scan finds them.
Using both apps on one phone
If you use personal and Business WhatsApp together, grant both folders once and switch the source as needed. The general steps match the main status saving guide.

Why do Business statuses not appear?
Most likely the source is still set to personal WhatsApp, or the Business folder was not authorized. Switch the source to WA Business and connect its folder.
Can I save both photo and video Business statuses?
Yes. Both are cached locally once viewed and can be copied to your gallery.
