Users Report Serious Bug in iOS 15 That Deletes Photos Saved From Messages

Posted September 30, 2021 at 5:21am by iClarified
There may be a serious bug in iOS 15 that causes saved photos from Messages to get deleted, according to reports on MacRumors, Twitter, reddit, and Apple's support forums.

It appears that if you save a photo from a Messages thread and then delete that thread, the photo will get deleted after your next iCloud Backup is performed.

MacRumors reports that the bug can be replicated via the following steps:


1. Save a photo from a Messages conversation to your Camera Roll.
2. Check to see that the photo has been saved.
3. Delete the Messages conversation the photo came from. The photo will still be in your iCloud Photo Library at this point.
4. Perform an iCloud Backup, and the photo disappears.

This is a pretty significant bug, especially because many users have automatic iCloud Backups enabled. We'd advise not deleting any threads in Messages until a fix is released. Unfortunately, the bug is still present in iOS 15.1 beta 2.

Let us know if you have noticed this issue on your device. You can download the iClarified app or follow iClarified on Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, and RSS for updates.
