Can’t save pictures on Safari (not even with 3D Touch?

I tried saving some photos on my IPhone X both with and without using the 3D Touch feature. My IPhone was recently updated to 12.1.4 so I don’t know if that’s the problem? How can I fix this?

Mine is still showing Save Image above the Copy and Cancel options, so not sure what the issue is. But you can try restarting it (no data will be lost):


  • On an iPad Pro 11-inch or iPad Pro 12.9-inch: Press and quickly release the Volume Up button. Press and quickly release the Volume Down button. Then press and hold the Power button until the device restarts.
  • On an iPhone 8 or later: Press and quickly release the Volume Up button. Press and quickly release the Volume Down button. Then press and hold the Side button until you see the Apple logo.
  • On an iPhone 7 or iPhone 7 Plus: Press and hold both the Side and Volume Down buttons for at least 10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo.
  • On an iPhone 6s and earlier, iPad, or iPod touch: Press and hold both the Home and the Top (or Side) buttons for at least 10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo.


Once you see the lock screen, try again to see if the option now shows.


Another way you can do it is to tap and hold the image firmly. The photo will pop up then re-display with the Safari buttons at the bottom including the Share button. Tap that to save the image or place it in other apps.


Best,
