iPhone not saving photos to camera roll, can’t save screenshots or use camera roll in other apps

I can’t save screenshots, save photos from websites or text messages and when I take photos, they don’t save to my camera roll. Also, I can’t send, edit, or even delete a phot that has been captured once I hit the thumbnail square while still in the camera mode. I need my camera for business purposes and I have tried EVERYTHING to resolve this problem.

Hi enkhuchral123,


It appears that you're unable to save any photos or screenshots to your iPhone, along with not being able to send, edit, or delete photos. You'll want to make sure that you have available iPhone storage.

You can also see if restarting your iPhone may help, which can seem like a simple step but it can sometimes help resolve issues: Restart your iPhone Another step you can also take is to ensure your iPhone is fully updated, to see if that may help as well. If there is an available update, you'll want to backup and update as seen in the articles below:


Take care.
