7 Simple Ways to Fix Live Photos Not Saving on FaceTime
Are your FaceTime photos not showing up in your Camera Roll? If your FaceTime photos aren't working, this could be an issue with your settings. All participants must have the Live Photos feature enabled for either party to capture and save photos. Luckily, this can be fixed in a few simple steps. This wikiHow will show you how to troubleshoot FaceTime when Live Photos are not saving properly on your iPhone.
Things You Should Know
  • Enable Live Photos in "Settings" → "FaceTime" → switch on "FaceTime Live Photos."
  • Make sure you have enough free storage to save new photos.
  • Restart FaceTime and your device. Update it to the latest available version.

Enable Live Photos
