No, pictures on iPhones can’t have viruses (they can’t on other platforms, either). AT&T is not Apple, so you will need to check their help pages.

Hidden photos on whats app Whenever I try to upload any pictures as status on whats app it redirects to photos and there my hidden photos folder 📁 is appearing even though I disabled it on photos. It’s quite insecure if my hidden photos folder directly opened up on whats whenever i try to put whats app status.

Missing photos when uploading For about a month now whenever I click on upload only 4 rows of photos show up and they are not new ones. I haven't changed any settings that I am aware of. I wonder if it is possible I have a virus. I opened photos one day last week and there was a message from someone I didn't know wanting to share a photo. I reported the message.
