Tap on the photo. Tap on the Share icon (the square with an up arrow) Tap Add to Album.


This does not copy the photo; instead it adds a link to the photo in “all photos” so it doesn’t take up any more space. You can take advantage of this in other ways, such as putting the same photo in multiple albums.
