ever since I downloaded the iOS 13 operating system to my Apple iPhone 8+ the “add to“ icon has disappeared from my photos so I can’t take a new photo and add to an existing photo album like I used to be able to. Why can’t I do this anymore?
iPhone 8
I called Apple support and they helped me figure it out. It was so easy I felt dumb. After you select your pictures click on the icon shaped like a box with an arrow pointing up. Then scroll UP! You will see more options to select specific albums that already exist to drop your pictures into. Let me know if that worked for you!!!

Hello justmeJP1966,
Thanks for that info and for choosing the Apple Support Communities. If I understand correctly, you are unable to add photos to existing albums and organize your pictures in the Photos app on your iPhone as expected. To help with this, please make sure you're following the steps in this Apple resource on this process:
Organize photos in albums on iPhone
Cheers!
The instructions on the Apple website are wrong! There is NO OPTION to add to an album when you click on the mentioned icon. This is incredibly frustrating!!!!!
Yes, scrolling up the Share menu is the secret.
It is a pity that "Add to album" is hidden away at the bottom of the Share menu, and the menu does not show, that it can be scrolled.
I have the same problem, I used to be able to add photo into my existing album but now the option is gone on my phone! Pls help!
