Anyone know of a current app that will allow me to scrape all the photos out of Google Messages? My significant other sends me a lot of pictures, but I have to manually save them so i can view them in the Photos app later. And I haven't been doing that as they come in. I just want something that I can go in with after the fact, find all the photos, and dump them into my Messages folder of the photos app so I have them all.

Google has been less that useful, and anything I've looked at has just been either a whole SMS replacement app, which I don't want, or a backup app which backs everything up somewhere, but doesn't make getting the photos any easier.

(I'm on a pixel 2 if that makes any difference)

Thats where they go if I save them manually, sure. But I can't set them to save there automatically (or at least, I haven't been able to find a menu or option that does that).

Yeah, you folks got it. They exist somewhere on the phone, I can go thru my text history and get them manually. I'm just looking for a way to save them automatically... she has sent hundreds. Not having much luck with any search I've tried so far. Might as well get clicking.
