Why my whatsapp images date modified automatically

[Android Central Question]

Hi
I have an issue that my WhatsApp images modified date is different or file name date is different. WhatsApp images real date is modified automatically in my phone. For example image date when I received it 25 October 2019 and in Feb date modified automatically which is 13 Feb 2020. Please reply me what is the reason behind this ?

Welcome to Android Central! Did you move or copy the file anywhere? If so, then the device will change the date of the image to when it was copied/moved (i.e., when that instance of the image was created).

[Android Central Question]

My WhatsApp images date modified automatically. I don't copy or move the files anywhere and I don't restore the WhatsApp. But still my WhatsApp images date modified automatically. I don't know why. In my phone image's name date is correct but the modified date is incorrect. Please reply me why my WhatsApp image's date modified automatically?is it any type of hacking or its normal?
