@isabelastisser It looks like the inline images preview was implemented on the web platforms only, it's mentioned in the PR.
This ticket reports a problem on iOS native, where this functionality is not supported I believe. So I'm not sure if it's a bug.
cc @Skalakid since he is the author of the initial PR.

@isabelastisser, @dukenv0307 Whoops! This issue is 2 days overdue. Let's get this updated quick!

[dukenv0307]

@Skalakid Do you think it's the bug?

[isabelastisser]

Bump @dukenv0307. I DM'd you for visibility. Thanks!

[dukenv0307]

@isabelastisser I think it's not a bug, but we need to wait for @Skalakid's response

[dukenv0307]

I already asked him in #50839 (comment)

[Skalakid]

Sorry, I missed the notification about this issue. As @VickyStash said, the inline image features are implemented for the web only for now. So it's not a bug. We are still working on adding this feature to native platforms
