iPhone XS Need help saving images

[VxayV]

I cannot save images from online to my photos. This applies to both iPhone and iPad. When pressing on an image the only options that that appear are 'Share' and 'Copy'. Tapping the Action icon it pulls up other options, but no possibility to save an image in photos. This happened sometime with iOS 13. Any suggestions?

I can still do it on 13.3. Which version are you currently on?

It depends on the website. Some images on websites you can press & hold on an image to get the "save image" dialogue, where on others you can't. Doesn't matter. Just take a screenshot of it when that happens and crop it. Web grabbed images never (in my experience) need to be super hi res anyway. A screenshot is fine (for me)

What options do you see in Share? It could be a link and not a full-res photo.

Quite strange.
I just tried with a Megan Fox picture 😜 and I still have Add to Photos between Share and Copy.

I experienced something similar a week or so back. Signing out of iCloud then back in resolved it for me.

Thanks for the replies.
The version is 13.2.3 on iPhone Xs and my iPad Pro.
I am trying to save free domain images, such as from Wikimedia Commons. (Btw, screenshots and such are not what I need, but the ability to save a high rez image directly to photos).
In previous versions it was a simple press and save to images. I have friends that can save the exact same images (using the same iOS version) with no problem, and they cannot understand it either. No such option appears on any of my devices. (As I said, all that appears is 'Share' and 'Copy', and Share only allows to text, email, add to reading list, etc.).
It is very frustrating that no one else seems to have the same issue or a fix for it.
