Do what's app pics save to camera roll even if not opened?

May have sent a picture I didn't mean to, to a contact. They didn't open it and I deleted it, but I think it gets saved to camera roll on some phones.

It depends on their settings! I'm in a few group chats and I sometimes have pictures on my phone from the chat when I haven't read them yet

Yes mine does - I think that is the default setting unless the user turns it off.

Oh no :(

Yep and they can't be deleted from your phone :( oh no
