Resolved: videos not playing on iphone camera roll
I saved some videos few months back to my iPhone camera roll, but now some videos won't play. When I try to play those videos, a little loading circle comes up like it is trying to load the video but it never plays. When the videos were saved, they were playable. These videos were saved from snapchat, but some work and others don't now. Does anyone know how I can solve this problem?
I just started having the video not playing problem since the latest update, some of my videos play fine and the others just have the loading circle. I've rebooted and recovered my phone, disabled icloud photos, also tried to enable it, nothing is working. Does anyone know how to fix this?
