iOS 17.4.1 not allowing Meta to access photos

Same thing was happening to me, easy fix just hard reset your iPhone (Press and quickly release the volume up button. Press and quickly release the volume down button. Press and hold the side button. When the Apple logo appears, release the side button.)

Since my phone updated itself to iOS 17.5 I’ve not money and businesses as non of the apps I post my business on works anymore cause the iOS 17.5 doesn’t give it permission to access camera, voice notes, photos , recording… for God sake why introduce this annoying update thats not perfect yet? This is pure wickedness and got me crying all day as I don’t have access to any of my social media business platforms…. iPhone what’s the way forward cause this won’t slide

I’m having the same issue. My phone just updated itself to 17.5.1 and now Meta can’t access my photos. There is no option to allow access and when I tried to send voice message, I couldn’t allow access too. Aside from that, my WhatsApp contact names are gone. How to resolve this? It’s so annoying.

You saved me lol, thank you SO much 🙌🏻

I have this same issue and unfortunately this didnt fix it at all. Nothing the internet has said has helped too

Reset only works temporarily. The new update restricts permanent photo access to Safari and other Apple apps.

Yeah first thing I tried and no luck

Did anyone manage to fix this? 😞

Were you able to fix??
