Annoying disruption affects countless users: All WhatsApp photos in the iPhone suddenly appear twice - a trick helps. The bug affects WhatsApp users who allow the messaging service to automatically save images.

Double storage takes up a lot of storage space. A possible consequence would be, for example, that the iPhone's memory becomes so full that no more images or apps can be downloaded and other functions are impaired. Some users already suspected that the latest version of Apple's mobile operating system, iOS 17.4, could be responsible.
