A few days ago an interesting controversy arose about the iPhone and iPad, since images that users of these devices deleted a long time ago inexplicably returned to the gallery. About, Apple has offered a solution, and explained what happened this time.
Currently, the current iOS update 17.5.1 is now available, and it solves the problem that worried more than one fan in recent days. About, Apple has indicated that the problem is due to a corrupt database that works locally in iOS 17.5, and not in iCloud. This means that the photos that returned to the users’ gallery correspond to data that had not been uploaded to iCloud, and were saved in the device’s internal memory.
This not only surprised more than one, but raised a series of concerns, since many thought that devices that were sold to third parties that had iOS 17 ran the risk of restoring strangers’ private photos. Fortunately, Apple has noted that this is not the case. Along with this, the company has confirmed that they also do not have access to the photos that were deleted.
This does not end here, since Apple has indicated that they plan to carry out a thorough investigation to find out what happened on this occasion, and prevent this from happening again in the future. On related topics, these are the new features of iOS 18. Likewise, the iPhone 16 is leaked.
Author’s Note:
This is a serious privacy problem. Although it seems that on this occasion the error was caused by a glitch, the fact that deleted photos reappear can give a bad impression to the public, and substantially affect Apple’s reputation,
