If you have an Android device, there is a way to find out when a picture was taken and sent to you. The process is simple and can be done without ever having to open the photo app. To find out when a picture was taken, open the “Settings” app on your Android device. Under “Privacy,” select “Photos.” You will see a list of all the photos that have been taken on your device, as well as any pictures that have been sent to you. To find out when a picture was sent, open the “Messages” app on your Android device. Under “Inbox,” select the picture that you want to find out when it was taken. You will see a date and time stamp next to the picture. ..
