  • The iOS app does not have this. Photos can only be added to a comment using the photo picker.

    On iOS, you can either use a photo from the camera app or an image in the Files app (something that was added to the phone as a document). But the Files app does not have access to the photos that are part of the camera roll. And the camera roll doesn’t have access to files.

    (The first two images in this comment were added using the Voyager app without any issue. The third image failed repeatedly. I logged into lemmy.world using the vger.app website and the third image uploaded without any problems.)


  • Clearing the cache does not fix the issue. It just makes it spin longer before failing again.

    Killing the app in memory does not fix the issue (but increases the probability of it working once in that moment if I keep spamming the button).

    Restarting the phone does not fix the issue.

    One thing I noticed is that posting images to communities on certain instances is harder than others. There’s some kind of handshake issue happening. This was never a problem in the past, unless the instance itself was experiencing technical issues.

    Again, going to the website in a browser on the same phone on the same network and image uploads work every time.

    …and through this I am having zero issues posting text.
