Apple’s iOS 17.5 update introduces a bug causing old deleted photos, including sensitive NSFW images, to resurface in Recents album and iCloud, with reports of deleted voicemails reappearing in WhatsApp. The bug’s cause remains unclear, with theories including indexing issues, library corruption, or unintended consequences. Some beta users had reported similar issues unaddressed before the public release.
