How to move pictures from Files to Photos?

I have some photos in the Files app and want to move these into the Photos app. I can’t seem to see anyway to do this. How is this done?


I want to do this on my iPhone.

iPhone 12 mini

Hi ioioioioi,


Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities.


We're happy to provide some assistance. You can save a photo in Files by pressing and holding it, and then tapping Save Image. You'll then see the photo in both your Camera app and Photos.


Please let us know if you have any questions.


Cheers!
