The styles option does not appear when I attempt to edit a photo in the photos app. I have a 16 pro max with the latest iOS update 18.0.1.
I do still show the filters, but not styles. What do I do?

iPhone 16 Pro Max, iOS 18
I had the same issue. High Efficiency checked and style appears in Camera, but not in Photos.
Here is what fixed for me:
Go to Settings, and
Unchecking and re-selecting the High Efficiency mode appears to reset it, and the Styles edit function in Photos.
Hope this works for you.
Update your iPhone to iOS 18.3 that was released just 5 days ago. You’re two updates behind. It doesn’t do Apple or you any good if they fix the issue and you don’t update. 😀
Haha! The original post was last October when the current update was 18.1, but thanks for your help.
You’re welcome!
I know, but the most recent post (and the one I responded to) is February 1, today at about 9 AM. The poster stated he’s using 18.1
Updated to 18.3.1 problem still not fixed
Great explanation. Problem solved 👍🏻
In order to have the styles option under a photo in your photos app, you must have your camera set to shoot in high efficiency, and not in most compatible. Go to settings, scroll down to camera, scroll down to formats, and make sure high-efficiency is checked and not most compatible. You will then have the styles option under your photo in your photos app..
The resolution for me was changing the format to High Efficiency AND turning off ProRAW for photos you’ll want to use the Styles option with. This has to be done before you take the picture. It will not work with photos taken without these settings prior to taking the photo.
Note: you can leave ProRAW on in settings and just turn it off in the camera (top right next to Live Photo icon) before you take the picture.
