@JonnyT @SamiMaatta @MonaApp I can definitely see that alt text! I’m running 6.5.1 which I think is latest, wasn’t any update I could see. Wonder what the heck I’ve done?
@73pctGeek @SamiMaatta @MonaApp Same version as me then. And, sorry, I have no idea. I don't know if there's a toggle in the settings that impacts this (as far as I can tell, this feature isn't mentioned anywhere).
Are you on iOS 17.x (I am) or are you on the iOS 18 betas?
@JonnyT @SamiMaatta I think I might have figured it out! PNG files with captions don’t seem to retain the info when being added to a @MonaApp post! The Gummy bears image was a JPEG hence it worked.
@73pctGeek @JonnyT Yes, it’s a known issue. Basically the Apple software doesn’t attach image descriptions to PNG files before sending to third-party apps.
As a workaround, you can make a slightly edit (crop for example) to your PNG picture in the Photos app before sharing. This works because (for whatever reasons) the Photos app always save edited copies in JPEG format…
