Thanks! @Rincewind

Nice that gives me an idea of how to deal with my function. Thanks @Claude31

@Paradigm777 Well kinda but I relize that the issue actually lies on a resetPressed function which sets the 'mainUIView' to nil. This function is intended to provide a clean canvas for subsequent operations but inadvertently results in the content stored in the 'canvasArray' being set to nil as well. I tried to avoid this by saving a copy of it in my saveCanvas function in this segment savedImageView2.image = mainImageView.image?.copy() as? UIImage

Just for reference this is my resetPressed function @objc func resetPressed(_ sender: Any) { mainImageView.image = nil } Any Ideas or suggestions on how to keep my resetPressed from affecting what is being saved in my saveCanvas function of my code would be much appreciated!

Never mind I found out that the issue lies on how my savedImageView2 is initialize inside my saveCanvas function. All I had to do was to store the copy of mainImageView inside if the UIImageView(image: mainImageView.image?.copy() as? UIImage) object just like that instead of doing it separately.
