Live photo duplicate as still photo gives strange result when editing

Hi, on iPhone6 I had a Live photo, chose different Key frame, then chose "Duplicate as still photo" - then I opened the duplicated photo to crop it. But when I Edit that photo, it suddenly changes to what I assume was the original key frame. How is that possible? I thought when I "Duplicate as still photo" that it would save ONLY the chosen key frame??

iPhone 6

Hi Ipad-meerkat,


We went and played with this action a little more. Keep in mind, we used an iPhone with iOS 16.6, and an iMac with macOS Ventura 13.5, which are both the latest releases.

With both devices we ran across the same issue. This tells us this function is not available, or not functioning as expected.

The only way to know for sure is to contact Apple Support and let them look into this.
