Hi dominika11

Re: pictures in imessage won’t show


Seems that pictures received in iMessages are now automatically saved to be viewed in Photos: "shared with you" album.


If needed:

At the bottom of Apple Support's article:

Send and receive content in Messages on iPad – Apple Support

says:

"Control what shared content appears in apps

You can adjust your settings to hide an app’s Shared with You section.

✽. Go to Settings > Messages > Shared with You.

✽. Turn off Automatic Sharing, or turn off Shared with You for a specific app.


All the best :-)
