Apple has released an unexpected update for iPhone and iPad. The new version iOS 17.5.1 is now available for download on our compatible devices to solve the strange problem of ghost photos reappearing in our gallery.
No betas, no notice, Apple released a quick update to fix a strange and confusing error: the reappearance in our photo gallery of photos that we had deleted for a long time. Additionally, these photographs appeared recent, which alerted many users on Reddit.
This update provides important bug fixes and fixes a rare issue where photos that suffered database corruption could reappear in the Photo Library, even if they were deleted.
This update comes just a week after the launch of iOS 17.5 and after a controversy due to the fact that many users complained on social networks and forums like Reddit that, suddenly and without possible explanation, the photographs that they had reappeared and had been deleted a long time ago. There is. This has raised many questions about the privacy of our data., since these photos are supposed to be deleted not only from our device but also from iCloud storage, where deleted photos are kept for 30 days after deletion and then are supposed to be deleted forever. Many users have claimed that photos were deleted several years ago, which should prevent them from reappearing on their devices.
We still have no information about what happened, why these supposedly forever deleted photos reappeared on iPhone and iPad. There were even users who claimed to have appeared on devices that no longer had their iCloud account, which they had already restored and handed over to other people. Even though many supposed experiences recounted by users of these forums should be quarantined, This is still a very disconcerting error because it affects something as private as our photographs.
