Apple’s iOS 17.5.1 banishes ‘Zombie Photos’ bug

Apple’s latest iPhone software update, iOS 17.5.1, has swooped in like a digital ghostbuster to banish a spooky glitch that resurrected deleted photos. The tech giant’s release notes explicitly acknowledge the “rare issue” where photos, presumed to be permanently erased, made an unexpected comeback after the iOS 17.5 update.

Fret not, conspiracy theorists! Apple assures us that this isn’t some secret plot to hoard our digital memories. The issue, it seems, stemmed from a database hiccup, not a sinister attempt to preserve our embarrassing selfies.

In true Apple fashion, the company swiftly addressed the bug with iOS 17.5.1, ensuring that deleted photos truly rest in peace. The update, arrives just a week after the initial iOS 17.5 release.

So, if you’ve been haunted by photos you thought were long gone, head to your Settings app and grab the iOS 17.5.1 update. It’s time to lay those digital ghosts to rest and reclaim your photo library from the undead!
