iPhone 16 Pro trouble editing Live Photos

Yup it was happening to all the updated phones when I was in the store last weekend. Exactly how you described. Let’s you change the Live Photo but then when you go to edit the selected shot it would crash on the second adjustment.

I’ve been experiencing a ton of issues since I got my iPhone 16 pro. I’ve had it for a month now. Sometimes the issues go away, but then they come back. For photo editing, when I press shot, the whole photo app shuts down. A couple weeks ago, cropping photos kept shutting down the app. A week before that, adjusting color grade was shutting down the app.

Same issue happening here.

I found photo editing in iPhone 16 pro sooooo much worse than in my old 14 pro. Plus the camera app keeps having issues when taking multiple photos quickly. Very disappointed on how much worse the photo experience got in 16 pro.

Hi I got mine resolved by a lovely guy called George at apple support. We videos what was happening and sent the video to technical and they fixed the issue.

The calendar was also having an issue when I was using the search feature to look for events I had put in it was coming up with no results even though they were there. George also talked me through adjusting the settings and this is also now resolved.

good luck everyone x

It is very frustrating because this seems to be an issue for many and I cannot find a way to fix it. I cannot modify any picture taken with my iPhone now. The live option does not work (it is frozen), when I try to edit the basics (lighting, contrast) the app does not allow to save the changes, there is an error message. Such an expensive phone and it is not working as it should!

So upset. I had a iPhone 13 Pro which took great pics and I could edit and crop with no issues. Now I upgraded to an I[hone 16 pro and when I take a photo I can’t edit it at all. It simply says loading and freezes. Had the phone for 3 weeks and hate it. And I did the latest software update. What can be done?

I have an iPhone 16 plus and have the same issue with my pictures edit. At this point it’s telling me that an error has occurred and it refuses to save. I am quite upset by it. I called the service and after 3hours wasted there was no solutions provided for me. Asked if it was under warranty and was told not. But I bought a phone for the pictures and what it enables you to do and it is suppose to have functionality such as editing pictures which the phone does not enables it. I think there should be a compensation offer for this disappointing phone and I do not recommend buying this lemon phone. Anyone heard of any claims against apple for this? Thanks

I am trying to edit a live picture and I receive a notice there was an error please try later. And it is since yesterday even after restarting the iPhone 16 pro max a couple of times .

do not allow me to change anything in the original photo !

any ideas?

Just because it works for you doesn’t mean it’s NOT an iOS issue. It can definitely be iOS that cause faulty states based on settings and data in a users phone. It’s is the responsibility of the operating system to take care of data corruption as well as prevent it from happenening. At least on a phone from a respectful manufacturer.

I am having the same issues! Can’t edit photos properly, the app just shuts down or stays on ‘saving’ indefinitely. My screen shots look totally different to the photo. Also if I have the camera open for too long my phone overheats. Lots of other little issues. Does anyone know if we can do anything about this? Ie get a new phone. Much preferred my 14.

Having the same issue - any photo's taken on the iPhone16 Pro Max. So disappointing. One of the primary drivers for the upgrade was the camera. Now I can't edit the photos I take? Huh?

Any update on this? I’m having the same issue when trying to save edited Live Photos.

Same problem here with my IPhone 16 iOS 18 updated

I have the problem with the 18.1 latest update

Just got my new phone last week. Having the same issues when editing photos.
