Why can’t I instantly send photos from camera roll? Recently bought the new iPhone 11 Pro Max and I the only way I can send pictures through text messages is if I go into my text app, why? With previous iPhone XS Max I would be able to go into my camera roll and just send them through there but now I don’t have the option. Same with my screenshots, I don’t get the option to send it via text, just email, snap, etc..

Saving Photos with iOS 13 I made the terrible mistake of installing 13.1.2. On both my iPhone and my iPad. A friend texted me a photo and I went to save it to 'Photos' but the option isn't there any more! I can Airdrop, Message, mail, etc. or send it to an app, but just 'save to Photos' isn't listed. Is there some special triple-tap, or 'super-swipe' pr some newly inventive, but not intuitively obvious method I haven't been made aware of to do this seemingly common task? The same applies to eMail attached photos. Can't save to 'Photos'. Help, please
