How to copy and paste photos to notes

i would just like to check why, in the past, I could copy, say, a photo from Instagram, with my iPad mini 4(I could still do it using my iPhone X) thru copying the link and opening it in Safari the. Copying the photo then pasting it in Notes; but ai can’t do it now since I updated to iOS 12.1.4? What’s wrong? Or have I done anything in the settings that prevent me from doing this action? Please help, thank you.

iPad mini 4, 12

Can you copy and paste photos into any app at all? This still works for me for me. Hold down on the Photo to get the copy option, select it, open the note, tap on the area in which you want to past and then select paste.


If you are using multitasking you can drag the photo over into the note as well. That’s what I did in this screenshot.
