Gallery Pro. There is no X to close an image in the lightbox on iPhone 16. Also not there in landscape view. You can swipe down to get back to the thumb page but not everyone would know that. Please advise. ![iphone](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex005/uploads/realmacsoftware1/original/3X/d/c/dc2ffb2b63fd2d9d83db6eaa202f78af19134ac8.jpeg) ---

Have you disbaled the Lightbox-\>Close Button setting? That’s the only thing I can think of as to why it’s not there. Is the close button showing on desktop? ![CleanShot 2026-08-27 at 09.35.30@2x](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex005/uploads/realmacsoftware1/original/3X/6/c/6c460331e3380768aefcdaef133222c842c8209c.png) ---

mine doest work either and the full screen icon isn’t there either!! no x for me either and yes mine is on…everthing works ok on iPad and desktop just not the IPhone…I can close it by tapping outside my image but the example above I imagine is hard to do I just tried doing an ordinary gallery (not a pro) and the X close button is there ---

Close button is on. If you look at a computer screen and push the sides together as narrow as possible, the x is there. But it is not quite as narrow as my iPhone based on how many thumbs are visible. In light box. ---

I’ve just shipped an update to Gallery Pro that fixes this issue. You can install this update directly from the Updates tab in the Elements Store. Let me know if you’re still seeing this issue after installing the update 😊 ---
