An in addition, AIRDROP and photos transfer through message while in the photos app are NO LONGER working to transfer photos to other devices in iOS 17.2!

that is walking backwards!

one should be able to return to the previous version DUE TO THE LOST IN DEVICE’S FUNCTIONALITY with the FAULTY SOFTWARE UPDATE!
