“How do I save pictures people send me from the iPhone Messages app?”
1. While inside Apple’s Message app, tap ‘Details’ located in the upper right corner.
2. Tap and hold on the photo you want to save. Select ‘More’ from the pop-up that appears.
3. A small circle with a checkmark should appear on the picture you want to save. You can also choose to save more than one image by tapping on other images so a checkmark appears on each image.
4. Now that you have all the images checked off, tap ‘Save Image’ located at the bottom of the screen.
5. Photos you saved from the Message app can be found in the ‘Photos’ app on the iPhone, iPad or iPod touch. You can now view and even edit the pictures from inside the Photos app.
