iPadOS 13.1.2
I’m in Photos, looking at a photo from several years ago. I want to save that photo to an album. I’m pretty sure in iOS I could directly save that photo to an album. In iPadOS, in seems that I have first go to the album, and then go find the photo again to save it to that album. In iPadOS, how do I directly save a photo to an album? Thank you. Jack

When you get on the share menu, scroll down; you will see the “Add to Album” menu item.

Thank you. At last we have the correct procedure to move photos into albums. Simple procedure really but Apple make so many changes it is hard to digest it all. I to, had the same problem as Jck019. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
When you select photo - click on bottom left icon - it come up airdrop/ messages/ mail etc - now scroll down and you will find other options - including move to album - I just happened to notice this !
or anything equivalent—in Photos on my iPad Pros (12.9 & 9.7) using iPadOS 13.1.2

I am using iPadOS 13.1.2 like you, and for me "Add to Album" appears in the Share menu, when I select a photo and tap "Share". The photo needs to have been downloaded from iCloud, however to be able to share it.
Since the recent update on my IPad mini, I can’t move photos to albums
Thank you for the help! It used to be so much easier! I don’t understand why that had to change.
when I “add” a photo to a folder it also stays in the original album/ folder. I want to “move” photos to clear them from the original camera roll. Is this possible?
Thank you
My iPad updated last night. Yes! The latest fix on mine now has a drop down menu this morning where there was not one yesterday. Super! As well, the All Photos Album has been restored. It was missing until this morning. Thinking this was a major glitch for some. Relieved it’s been addressed.
Leonie, thank you for your reply. I followed your instructions; unfortunately, I don’t see “Add to album” on the Share menu. I’m sure it used to be there. I’m on iPadOS 13.1.2. I don’t see any relevant settings for Photos in Settings.
I happen to have an old iPad Mini 2, which is not eligible for update to iPadOS; it’s still on iOS 12.4.2. Leonie, your instructions DO work in Photos on my iPad Mini 2 with iOS 12. However, I cannot find the “Select/ tap photo/Add to album” functionality—or anything equivalent—in Photos on my iPad Pros (12.9 & 9.7) using iPadOS 13.1.2, or on my iPhone Xs with iOS 13.1.2.
Yes, thank you for your reply, Joules59,. I was too dumb to scroll down. I didn’t have to with iOS 12 and I didn’t think to do it in iPadOS 13. I’m going to try to more innovative from now on. :-) Jack
On iPads: The new latest update changed the way you move photos to albums. You cannot select photos, click share the Add to Album. So we share the same problem. If someone figures it out, please share the solution. “Add to Album” is not there anymore. As well, the Duplicate icon arrow has also been removed.
Agree. As well, Duplicate has been Removed. I did discover you can Copy an image then Paste it into an Album. However you cannot paste it into the main All Photos album which I think has been renamed Recent, even though it contains All your photos. This latest update is the Least Intuitive update so far. iPad & iPhone Photos was elegant. Move here, place there, duplicate, Add to Album. Now I feel like I’m working on a PC copying and pasting. Hope the next update fixes this mess.
Select the photo where ever you can see it. Tap "Select", then tap the photo, then tap the Share button and use the command "Add to album" from the Share menu.
How do I move a photo to an album in ipados?
