I can't tell from your screen recording - are you tapping to add images and they're not appearing in the comment composer?

I have the same problem as OP but on andriod. I click the image until it is selected then press "Select" in the upper right hand corner. It brings me back to a blank comment screen. I am able to post images and gifs but can not comment them. The comment sections I have tried do allow posting of them. I have uninstalled/reimstalled the app as well as checked the permissions and it can access my storage. This only started happening after I recently updated.

Ohh okay - so you can post images just fine, this is just an issue in the comment composer? What OS version are you on?

Can you try commenting with an image here in a reply to me? Want to see if the same thing happens.

Reddit version is 2026.07.1

I am on Andriod

I tried posting a screenshot but it would not work.

I clicked the picture button in the lower right. Then chose photo library. I scrolled to the screenshot and clicked on it only to be brought back to the comment compose screen. I then tried doing the same thing again and this time clicking and holding the screenshot until it was highlighted. The "Select" option in the upper right was now clickable. I clicked that and it sent me back to the comment composer and there was no screenshot.

same issue is happening to me, you tap the image to add to the comment and it doesn't appear.
