How do I get message to stop sticker device folders in my photos?

[Android Central Question]

Sticker device folders appear in my photos several times a day. I delete them and they keep. Coming back. This drives me crazy. How do I permanently get rid of them?

Welcome to Android Central! Use a file manager app to add a blank text file called ".nomedia" (without the quotes but with the leading period) in that directory messaging app's directory where the stickers are saved. This will instruct the system to ignore that directory when scanning for images to add to the gallery database.
