MacRumors has highlighted a notable yet unresolved issue in the iOS 18 operating system, where users are unable to save edited photos in the Photos app. When attempting to save, iPhone users encounter an error message stating, “There was an error saving this photo. Please try again later.”
The problem reportedly emerged with the launch of iOS 18, and despite the ongoing testing of the iOS 18.2 beta, it remains unresolved. This issue predominantly affects users of the iPhone 16 series, although there are also accounts from owners of older devices.
Many users link this error to the functionality of the operating system, as iOS 18 has been noted for a variety of issues. With Apple yet to address the problem, users suggest reverting any recent changes and attempting to edit the photo once more, as this approach may occasionally yield positive results.
