Photos from messages disappearing

Hi drsosada,

Thanks for posting in Apple Support Communities.

It sounds like your images are disappearing from the Message app. Check to make sure you have available storage on iPhone in Settings > General > iPhone Storage. If necessary, back up your iPhone and remove content that doesn't have to be on iPhone such as large amount of photos, videos, email attachments, voice memos, music, and apps. You will have recommendations in Settings for what content is using the most space.

Use your device to check its storage

1. Go to Settings > General > [Device] Storage. You might see a list of recommendations for optimizing your device's storage, followed by a list of installed apps and the amount of storage each one uses.

2. Tap an app's name for more information about its storage. Cached data and temporary data might not be counted as usage.

In the detailed view you can:

* Offload the app, which frees up storage used by the app, but keeps its documents and data.

* Delete the app, which removes the app and its related data.

* Depending on the app, you might be able to delete some of its documents and data.

If your device is almost full and can't free up space, you might get a Storage Almost Full alert. If you see this alert, check the storage recommendations or offload some less-used content like videos and apps.
