Unable to change the color of the text while editing photos after iOS 18 update

Is anyone else having issues with editing photos in the new IOS 18 update? I can't seem to change the color of the text when I go to edit the photo. The option comes up and then disappears right away. Hopefully a bug they will fix soon as I have to add text to photos for work when it comes to labeling rooms/information.

Same happening to me on my new 16 Pro, and checking on reddit, many people having the same problem.


I think Apple should quickly look into this. It is a shame that they have bugs like this on a $1000 plus phone…

This seems to be a real problem. Markup works fine for me and for many others. Some people have reported that with two phones in their family, one works and the other doesn't. The differences occur even with the same camera model, the same operator, and the same OS. There's probably noting that we can do differently with our phones to fix it.


This is going to make it a crazy problem to solve.

Nothing works to fix the text markup function iOS:18.1.1.

I’ll just have to learn to live with Black Text. Surely Apple could fix this bug, but seems this has been dragging on for so long now looking at this community thread.

Unbelievable Apple that Apple didn’t rectify this software issue before the last iOS 18.1.1 update. I guess, as so many other people are experiencing this same problem, that I can assure myself my iPhone 13 has been hacked😅
