New Stickers Disappear Immediately (iOS 18 Messages App)

For anyone wondering, it’s Jan 6, 2025 and the issue has yet to be resolved. I actually came here seeking answers and I see that we’re all in the same boat. How unfortunate, Apple. Get your s*** together!

Sorry, but this is a completely unacceptable solution. I paid extra for the iPhone and iCloud so I wouldn't have to deal with broken upgrade paths. No. Apple needs to fix this. Period. End of story. Otherwise, they need to start sending partial refunds for selling a broken product.

”I had JUST spent hours making stickers to illustrate a business proposal!! Got set to put it all together and those plus all I had before were GONE!! More upset to find this is a known “bug” than to think I made some mistake!! I just invested in this new phone for all it offers - PLEASE don’t offer something before it is reliable!!! May have just cost me a huge bid - and DID cost me promising my daughter her patience would pay off & I was almost done working so we could play… Now I’m at square one - with this bid and her trust in me all on the line and I get to be the failure!! SO UNHAPPY RIGHT NOW 😤😩 <—— thanks for the emojis that still work 😠”

Same on iPhone 16

Same. iPhone 16 pro

Woww what a drag. Were stickers the only thing having that issue ?

Same. Brand new 16 Pro.

Same here 16 Pro OS 18 Come on Apple $2000 phone . You can and should do better.

Same - 14 pro no problem. Upgraded to the iPhone 16 Pro and when I go to create a sticker 
it appears in the stickers and them within 1-2 seconds disappears.

same on iPhone 16 Pro

Me too! iPhone 16 pro

Same issue on my end as well! This should be fixed asap!

The same thing is happening in my iPhone 16 Pro on the latest iOS 18. None of the stickers saved from my previous iPhone and in my iPad are there, nor can I save new ones.
