Since to day i cannot see the Hidden Photos Album when wanting to share a photo on WhatsApp. What happened? How do I get WhatsApp to have access again to the hidden photo album?

If it doesn’t work, follow this path,
iPhone > Settings > scroll down > Apps > WhatsApp (tap W on right edge) > Photos > Full Access, again if enabled momentarily switch to none then back and finally restart the iPhone.
Sounds like Apple instituted greater privacy protections in 18.x.x WhatsApp may have to institute changes in their app to permit it. I’d contact the WhatsApp support team and inquire about the feature. You can also leave feedback for Apple.
Did you confirm the setting is on? Another trick of sorts is to disable the feature momentarily and then switch back on and lastly restart your device.
Apple may have eliminated access to hidden album for third party devices. You can always turn off Face ID for hidden album but that kind of defeats the purpose.
It Has always been activated and it still is. Since yesterday I cannot find the hidden album even on telegram. Something must have happened. On the other iPhone it is still visible when I want to attach a photo from WhatsApp or telegram
Have you enabled Show Hidden Folder in Utilities? Please follow this path,
iPhone > Settings > scroll down > Apps > Photos (tap P on right edge) > Show Hidden Album
Restart as in switch it off and on again, I have tried already without success. Will try to switch off and on the feature…
Nothing. None of this works. I can see the hidden album in the photo app, but not in WhatsApp or telegram. I can see it in gmail as well.
what can it be?
It’s strange because on my other iPhone I see it in telegram. Not in WhatsApp…
What iOS are they each on?
ios 16.7.10 and ios 17.6.1
Why is my hidden WhatsApp photo album not showing up on my iPhone?
