i am curious because i saved photos into my "My Files" and decided to check the info. One photo has as Content Crestor: Instagram does that mean the photo was used from instagram and other photos have Content Creator: 18.3.2 or 18.5 what does this mean ?

Original Title: Saved photos in My Files
iPhone 16 Plus, iOS 18
When a picture file passes through some app, that app can put its stamp on the picture's metadata. Many apps don't add or change that. So it just means it's been there. I mostly see it as an ad for that app.

I think so. Of course, someone else could have added it, so I wouldn't count on it for evidence in court…

Instagram means it came from an Instagram message. The 18.3.2 and 18.5 means it was taken by your iPhone or an iPhone while it was running iOS 18.3.2 and iOS 18.5.
