.nomedia file in the folders ?

Thanks, I tried few different tools for a research, and found content in my whatsapp folder are not added to all gallery apps.
Unsure what can be the issue ?
Any guess

Whatsapp has different kinds of folders - status, private and public.
Public folders will be visible , in some apps, user has to include the paths to make them visible in the app, check it
Private and status folders - will have .nomedia file and start with "." , so, these are not visible by default (this is android's system behavior). You will have option like "Show hidden folders"

I bought Solid Explorer. But most of the time I still use ES File Explorer v 4.0.2.3 - it works well, for my usage at least.
ES File Explorer, suffered the same fate as QuickPic.

Material Files. It is a clean and open source file manager. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=me.zhanghai.android.files&hl=en_IN&gl=US

"File Manager by File Manager Plus" , fast, light weight, simple UI, Ads only at bottom, no pop-up full screen ads, has network options like cloud, FTP and remote etc etc, still its fast.
Will buy it sometime in future if managed in same efficient way.

Previously, used Google Files and Mi File manager by Xiomi, both are light weight, fast and free (no Ads).
There's a File Manager also by Simple tools, hope its as good as their Gallery app.

Using Quickpic since the era I started using Android. No nonsense app. Ultra light, ultra fast, ultra easy!
Google photos is simply chor! Anything from google is chori!

I downloaded Quickpic from here https://quickpic.en.uptodown.com/android/download
I am also using an older version on my other phone which also works fine.

Maybe the OP or Mods can rename this to Free Android Apps as I am going OT.
Is anyone aware of an open source replacement of Anydesk for remote connection between two mobiles ?

Check out spacedesk, altho not sure if it works for 2 phones.

No its a different software. My use case was to connect from one mobile to another over Internet like Teamviewer, Anydesk etc. except I was looking for an open source app.

Currently using these but Google Files seems to be having some issues lately.
Deleted files still show up but do not open.
Need to replace both with a single alternative.
