Save all photos from iMessage to the phone

This question seems to pop up occasionally for single or perhaps a 'few' images.

How does one transfer all photos from iMessages to Phots on the iPhone itself.

In 'text' copy operations one is asked if one wants to select a word, or a few letters, or 'select all'.

I need the equivalent for the photos in a message thread, to 'back them up' independent of accessing them with iMessage.

iPhone 14

Hi jeclarkiii,

Currently there is not a way to save all photos from Messages to the Photos app. We are always looking for ways to improve our products, so we encourage you to leave feedback here: Product Feedback - Apple

This is the best way to have your voice heard by our designers and engineers.

You can quickly save photos from a sender by using these steps: Use Messages on your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support

"Find attachments from a conversation

Open the message.
Tap the name of the contact at the top of the message. If you're using iOS 14 or earlier, or iPadOS, tap the Info button .
You'll see Photos and Links. Touch and hold an image or attachment to show options like Save, Copy, Share, and Delete.:

We hope this helps.

Cheers!
