iPad Pro trouble with iMovie

I made a movie in iMovie. It only show the first photo. Nothing else unless I manually scroll it. What’s wrong?

iPad Pro, iPadOS 18

Hi,


It's a bug. For projects consisting of photos, the display will get stuck on the first photo. Many people have reported the issue. Apple will need to address it.


Meanwhile, as a workaround, insert a video anywhere in the timeline. That will unstick the display. After you finish your editing you can delete the video and export the project if you wish. The export should play fine.
