How to remove a hyperlink from a photo?

When I copy & paste a photo I am unable to edit the photo due to the hyperlink taking me back to the source.

Hyperlink in a photo on my iPhone How can I add a link to a photo? I sometimes do a screenshot of a product on a website with a price and want to know if it changed or just send a link to a friend later.Screenshot is a picture and I can’t get a link from a picture, obviously. Or I go to a place and want to add a website link of that restaurant or google map address. All sorts of links. Of course I could search the product by name on a website and I could press a button (annoying one) to retrieve a text from a photo and search it. I know I can actually add text to a photo, but links are long and take up 4-5 lines on a photo and by retrieving-a-text-from-a-photo button adds unwanted characters in between the lines making it useless. So I have to go to edit, choose pen, choose etc, add text and then tap to choose edit text, and then triple tap the text to choose it all and then choose copy to actually retrieve a working link. Is there any way around it?

Hi FloridaOldGuy,

Thanks for connecting with us here in Apple Support Communities. Have you tried downloading the photo instead of copy/paste? You can also take a screenshot of the photo on your Mac and add it to your Photos. You can see how to take a screenshot here: Take a screenshot on your Mac - Apple Support

Following those steps should help to resolve the issue you're facing.

Kind regards.
