Lines covered on illustrator when saving

I wonder if anyone can help! I'm using illustrator in the ipad and did a drawing however when I save it, it has a black background and only shows certain lines, I'm not sure what to do or why it's done it and it's my first time using it on the ipad. To merge all the lines I intersected it so it can move all at once. Unsure how to save with all the lines on show and be able to use it on photoshop or Procreate afterwards.

Looks like you have fills but not closed paths...

I'd step back to before you used intersect, do a Save As to pdf then open in PS (I don't know what Procreate is [App-wise!] so I don't know what file format it csn open...)

So this happens after you reopen the file?

Or did it happen after you used intersect? Why did you do that at all? Group would have been the thing to do.

When I want to just open the image it does that AND I wasn't able to use the group option it wasn't letting me and I found the intersect that allows to merge them. Do you know how I could fix it or not?

Without actually seeing the AI file, nobody will be able to help you. Group should always work, actually.
