Q: Why don't I have the save image option?

Yesterday it was working fine when I saved an image from safari on google, but now it's not displaying the save image option whenever I hold down the picture. It only shows, add to reading list, view image, copy, go to link... How do you fix this?

iOS 7.0.6

    Try:

    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost       

    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at

    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

    - Go to settings>Safari and Clear Cookies, Data and History

    - Reset all settings      

    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.

    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.

    - Restore from backup. See:                                                

    iOS: How to back up                                                                                     

      - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

    The same thing is happening on my iPhone and iPad. I have to go to the site where the pic is to save image now. Not sure why this has changed

    This is probably a bit late but I was having the same problem.  Go to settings and scroll down the left hand side until you come to Google then select it. Turn on photos to allow Google access.  You should now find you have save image option in google again.

    had the same problem. had downloaded some photos already. found that if i was trying to download the same pic again the option to save would disappear. think this might be the problem it disables save option if theres duplicates. maybe!
