Viber and Whatsapp - SD Card Required?

    Would Viber or Whatsapp require an SD card before you can view photos sent to you? The Aunt picked up a ZTE Blade 3 the other day and each time she tries to view a photo in Viber it gives her an "SD Card Unavailable" message.
    I cant see any way of pointing the app to the internal storage.

    viber and whatsapp use up a bit of ram, and that phone only have 512mb of ram, thats very little when you consider facebook, if she uses it, and other apps and pretty soon there is no space for you to run an app

    RAM isn't the issue. It's a storage issue. The apps are looking for an SD card that isn't there.

    Ya i figured it would be more of an issue with the Nexus devices if it required an SD card. They are the only apps to look for the SD card. The camera saves to internal storage without issue.
