We just upgraded phones to the iPhone 11 Pro and it appears that the “view all photos” page from all threads in iMessage are missing all photos from before the upgrade. The ones taken/shared since the upgrade are there, but none prior. This is with iMessages in the cloud turned on and the whole message archive has been restored, but none of the photos prior to the upgrade (though they still exist within the thread if you scroll up far enough). Is this an iOS 13 bug? Should I be worried they’ll never return to the screen where you can easily access and look through them?
Got a tip for us?

I've been experiencing this same problem, I posted about it in a previous thread. It looks like they're all there, just not displaying properly for some reason.

Have tried 3 restores from backup and 1 set up as new and pictures in messages are missing in all of them. Apple does know about the issue and is working on a fix. Hopefully it comes out soon.
