The latest iOS 17.5 update from Apple has a bug that makes old pictures, some of which were removed years ago, show up again in users’ photo libraries. Here’s what you need to know about this strange problem:.
The Trouble
Users have been shocked to find that photos they thought they had deleted show up as newly posted to iCloud³ after updating their iPhones. There are NSFW images and pictures from different times in these photos, even ones that were deleted in 2021 or 2023³. It has nothing to do with undeleting recently deleted pictures, since Apple’s pictures app saves removed things in the Recently Deleted album for 30 days.
Reasons That Could Be
It’s still not clear what caused this bug, but here are some ideas:
- sorting Bug: It could be a problem with sorting that makes it hard to organize the photos in the library.
- picture Library Corruption: Some people think that there might be corruption in the picture library.
- sharing Problem: There may be a problem with sharing between your local devices and iCloud Photos.
- Unintended Consequence: Apple may have caused this new problem when they tried to fix an old bug with picture sharing.
Reports from Users
Reddit users have talked about their experiences, and photos from shows, old Canon photos, and other pictures that don’t seem to have any connection to anything else have been seen again. The bug is present on both iPhones and iPads, even after they have been cleaned and sold to other people.
Apple’s Answer
Apple has not yet made a public comment about it. Still, it’s important to stay up-to-date as new information comes out.
Bottom Line
Don’t worry—you’re not the only one who has had this problem. Most likely, Apple is trying to fix it. We’ll let you know as we find out more. For now, be careful when you’re handling your picture library, and think about using other backup options to keep your important moments safe.
