No longer able to attach photos to an email with iOS 13.

I have been updating my iPhones every time a new release is available and have never faced an issue in last 10 years. I still have my I Phone 4S iOS 9.3.6 (Current), 6 iOS 12.4.2, SE & 8 with latest iOS 13.1.2 and iPad with iPadOS 13.1 and having no issue whatsoever.  I must admit that I have never downloaded any spurious apps directly from internet. 

Please look at the apps that you may have downloaded which may be triggering this behaviour.

Since my update to 13.1.3 both on brand new iPhones Xs and old 6s, (and when syncing through Catalina Finder which used to be iTunes) - I cannot share photos from iPhone that were synced and in albums.

To be clear, the current camera roll pix are sharable, but any 'from my Mac' do not attach to email, airdrop, text, etc. (Also note, it's NOT corrupted pix, because a. they send perfectly fine from computer and b. I took a new picture with the Xs and airdropped it to my computer, dragged it into an album in PHOTOS app, and synced it again onto iPhone. The same picture wouldn't work from 'from my Mac' album.)

The share icon is there on the bottom, and it successfully goes to the next screen where there are choices, but as soon as you touch one of the icons, it glitches and goes back to home screen.

Yes I've reset to factory settings more times than I can count. To the Apple store twice. One solution? Just screen shot the pix. NO! This used to work! The capability is there, it's just failing.

I’m having the same issue on a brand new seventh generation iPad running iOS 13.2.3, and the same issue occurred on my iPad Air, a few years older, running the same new iPad OS

If I insert the photo first in a new message, Mail doesn’t crash. But if I type some text, press down, choose the Insert Photo option, and select a photo, poof! Mail just disappears and I’m taken to the home screen.

It doesn’t happen if I reply to a message, but only when I create a new one.

I can’t replicate this on my iPhone XR still running OS 12.something, and a friend tested this on his iPad Mini, OS 13.2.3, and couldn’t replicate it.

I continue to experience the exact same issue. It’s maddening. I cannot reply with requests to attach screenshots, etc. Nobody at Apple has been able to assist me, even in person at the Genius Bar. Sort of shook their heads, started a ticket but no resolution.

thanks for raising it here, deggie. Will continue to follow this thread and will share if I get any useful follow up. This is kind of a big deal—can’t believe it hasn’t been fixed.

I experience the same issue all the time. Very frustrating.

iPhone XS Max on OS 13.1.3.

hope they fix it soon.

just as a side note: to get around it. Leave your email open and switch to your photo app. Copy the photo and return to mail. You can then paste it directly in your email.

The reason I said that was because, Watch the GIF below taken from my iPhone SE iOS 13.12

Can't replicate it either on my iPhone or iPad.

Hi Apavlova,

if you attach the image first, does it work for you? On my new Ipad that’s the only workaround I’ve found.

Thanks, SnowGirl2019-

that works sometimes but not always on my phone- iPad yes.
