Are you feeling frustrated because Apple Intelligence isn’t showing up in your photos, even after you’ve enabled it? You’re not alone. Many users have similar experiences where their iPhone seems to have everything set up correctly, but the intelligent features don’t seem to work or provide the expected results.
If you’ve already turned on Apple Intelligence and tried everything you can think of, but still don’t see any difference, here’s a simple approach to troubleshoot and hopefully resolve the issue.
First, double-check that your iPhone is running the latest version of iOS. Sometimes, software updates include important improvements or bug fixes that can help features like Apple Intelligence work properly. Since you mentioned your device is on iOS 18.5, ensure that there are no pending updates. You can do this by going to Settings > General > Software Update.
Next, try restarting your iPhone. A simple restart can fix temporary glitches and ensure that all recent settings are properly applied.
Another step is to review your settings once more. Go to Settings > Photos, and look for options related to Apple Intelligence or machine learning features. Make sure they are turned on. Sometimes, toggling these settings off and back on can help refresh their functionality.
It’s also a good idea to test the feature in different scenarios. For example, look at your photo library and see if it offers suggestions or enhancements. If nothing appears, try opening a specific photo that should trigger an intelligent feature, such as a recognized person or scene, and see if it offers any actions or suggestions.
If none of these steps work, consider resetting your settings completely. This doesn’t delete your data but resets system settings like Wi-Fi, notifications, and more. You can do this by going to Settings > General > Transfer or Reset iPhone > Reset > Reset All Settings.
Finally, if the issue persists, contacting Apple Support may be your best move. They can offer more advanced troubleshooting or identify if there’s a specific problem with your device.
Remember, even if Apple Intelligence doesn’t seem to be working now, it’s a feature that often needs some time to fully integrate and improve based on software updates. Just stay patient, keep your device updated, and reach out to support if needed.
