For many iPhone users, #images is not working on cellular data after iOS 13 update. Users are receiving an error “Could Not Share Image. The internet connection appears to be offline” when trying to send GIFs in messages using cellular data. #images works fine when wifi is on, the error appears only when cellular data is on. Today in this article I have provided a few workarounds which can help you to get rid of this error until Apple comes up with a fix in a new patch. Let’s start with a few practical scenarios:

Scenario 1: #images Not Working on Cellular After iOS 13 Update

I have an iPhone 7 and just updated it – among other horrible problems, I cannot figure out how to get my gifs to send in messages. If I am on wifi, they work, if not, I get a message saying “Could Not Share Image. The internet connection appears to be offline”. Old suggestions say to go to Cellular and turn on Hashtag images, but that is not an option in my cellular settings.

Scenario 2: Could Not Share Image. The internet connection appears to be offline on Cellular Data

I have an iPhone X, AT&T as a provider and I am experiencing the exact same problem. Works fine while using WIFI, but I get the same message, “Could Not Share Image. The internet connection appears to be offline” when using only cellular data.

Till the time Apple comes up with a fix, you can look for an alternative.

This will allow you to access, search for GIFs and #images just like before. The only difference is the use of the alternate keyboard.

You can download the GIF or GIPHY keyboard App from the AppStore and you’ll be able to send GIFs and images using #images again on cellular data.

Opting for Reset All Settings might do the trick and you wouldn’t lose any data.

Open Settings > Select General > and tap Reset.

Reset All Settings: When you select Reset All Settings, it removes all the customized settings and reset the settings to default. This includes a reset of network settings, keyboard dictionary, home screen layout, location, privacy, and Apple Pay cards.

Perform Factory Reset

We understand factory reset is a big call to make as it involves data loss but the issue has resolved for almost all the users when they did a factory reset.

Many users did factory reset without restoring the backup and started everything from scratch. First backup your data and try it without restoring the data back and if everything works fine then go ahead with the restoration of the backup. Then check if the issue still persists.

To reset your iPhone, open Settings > tap General > tap Reset, select Erase All Content and Settings. Back up data using the iCloud backup.

Important Note: You will lose all the data on your device when you select Erase All Content and Settings.
