iPhone cannot view videos in photo albums

When you have an internet connection, you can still watch videos in your photo album normally. But strangely, even though these are offline videos, when there is no wifi or 4G, users cannot watch them. This is the most common manifestation in this case.

The reason could be because:

2. The video you downloaded may not be compatible with your iPhone. That's why I encounter a situation where the iPhone can't watch videos without pictures or at all.

2. The video is large in size and the network connection is having problems so it is not fully received. These reasons can cause iPhone to watch videos without images on Zalo, or not be able to watch the video.
3. The zalo application on the device has not been updated for a long time, so it is a bit unusual and crashes occur.
