Can’t ID plants in photos after iOS 18.0 update

I’ve got an iPhone 13 pro. I upgraded the iOS to 18.0 a few days ago. Took photos of plants yesterday and I’m not shown the leaf when I access the info button on the new photos nor on any of the older ones where earlier I had been able to use the phone to get an ID (even if occasionally it was wrong). I hope someone knows how to get this function back.

iPhone 13 Pro, iOS 18

OK, I figured out the problem. I was searching for "show related content" in the search bar. You have to instead scroll down to the "search" entry in the list (between home screen and Siri), click on that, and then you'll see the "show related content" button. Turn that on and it works.

I have this same problem, using Iphone 13 mini. However, I do not have the “Enhanced Visual Search” option. I have tried all the above suggestions to no avail. Is the 13 mini so much different then the others that makes this so difficult? Running ios 18.1. Thanks everyone.

I'd say, if this is still a problem for you, start a new thread and give a complete description of what's happening, including what suggestions you've tried. It will save those trying to help from having to backtrack to find what you mean, and it will be more useful to others.

I did the search as suggested on the Home Screen search window and in settings and 'show related content' yields nothing in either case. I have an iPhone 15 with the 18.3.2 version software. I was with a friend and we both took pictures of the same plant at the same distance and same time. For her dots and leaf showed up under the i on the picture and for me, nothing. I dont understand it and I dont know what to do. Any help appreciated! Thanks. Screen shots of where to type and what would be helpful so I could check I have the right settings at least.
