I tried a lot, and no luck. I also don't know how to ignore whatsapp media on Google Photo App.

If you go to the "Folders" in the Album app, and click WhatsApp, you can delete all the pics

What you mention is the classic issue with Whatsapp on Android, it automatically adds the media to the phone. You can try (I haven't tried it) creating a blank text file in Whatsapp folder, call it .nomedia and see if that gets rid of showing the photos on the Photo App.

**Edit** - just tried this and it didn't work, so it's overriding this fix that works with most apps.

Thank you guys, but unfortunately I didn't solve the problem. My friend's stupid whatsapp media is still pouring on my Google photos library.
Maybe I should find new friends or fetch an iPhone to solve the issue.

On whatsapp, you can go to settings and unselect "media auto download"
