Some iPhone users have reported encountering a new bug in the Photos app that prevents them from saving edits made to their photos after updating to iOS 18. According to a report from *Mac Rumors*, the issue begins as soon as the user attempts to edit a photo within the app, where they are greeted with the following error message: "An error occurred while saving this photo. Please try again later."
When this error occurs, users are unable to save their edits midway through the process, and the only way to exit the editing interface is by pressing the "Cancel" button, which results in the complete loss of any changes. According to the report, it appears that many of the affected users own the new iPhone 16, though other iPhone models have also been impacted.
Reports indicate that this bug affects all versions of iOS 18 and first appeared in September, though it doesn't seem to be widespread. The exact cause of the issue is unclear, as not all users or photos are affected. However, it may be related to the Live Photos feature or a problem with iCloud Photos, as suggested by *Mac Rumors*. In some cases, users are unable to edit photos taken on specific days, which hints that the problem could be related to how the photos are captured or saved.
