Videos always looping in iOS 18 photos app

I recently updated to iOS 18, and whenever I play a video in the Photos app, I find that the video continuously loops. I’ve looked through the video settings as well as the on screen controls, and I cannot find any way to stop this behavior. I don’t want the video to play repeatedly. Is there a solution? Thank you

Check settings, apps and photos.

Thanks for the response. I have gone to settings -> apps -> photos and look through all the settings available but did not find anything about turning off looping playback. Can you tell me where you’ve found this setting on your phone? Thank you

On setting, apps and photo. I just check. Slide until you hear loop videos on or off. I turn it off. Is there on iOS 18.2

Thank you. I realized I was not on the latest version of iOS 18. I was on 18.1 and it looks like they recently released 18.2, and now I do see that option. Appreciate your help
