Photo Access Denied Error on Rapchat
Updated this week

If you encounter an error that says "Photo Access Denied" when trying to import photos into Rapchat, it’s usually because the app doesn't have permission to access your photos. Follow the steps below to resolve this issue:

Step-by-Step Guide to Enable Photo Access

  1. Open Your Settings
    Go to the Settings app on your device.

  2. Locate Rapchat
    Scroll down and find Rapchat in the list of apps. Tap on it to open the Rapchat settings.

  3. Check Photo Access
    Under the Rapchat settings, you’ll see an option labeled Photos. Tap on this.

  4. Grant Access
    You should see three options: None, Selected Photos, and All Photos.

    • Choose All Photos to give Rapchat full access to your photo library. This will ensure the app can access any photo you want to import.

  5. Restart Rapchat
    After adjusting these settings, close Rapchat completely and reopen it to make sure the changes take effect.

Once these steps are complete, try importing your photo again. If you continue to experience issues, please reach out to our support team for further assistance.
