Q: Upgrading to iOS 10 breaks Save Image from emails

After upgrading to iOS 10, I can no longer tap and hold on an image received and displayed inside a Mail message to Save Image to my camera roll from a pop-up menu. Instead, it appears to only be able to save the text of the URL associated with the image. Ditto for images from websites in Safari.

iPad Pro, iOS 10

    Here is how "save image" is done under iOS 10:

     

    • Touch and hold the photo (or video)
    • Tap "Quick Look"
    • Tap the upward facing arrow coming out of the box (in the lower left)
    • Tap "Save Image".

    Quick Look is not a menu option when tapping the images I'm referring to, possibly because they may be loaded remotely inside the emails? When I tap and hold, iOS thinks I'm working with the URL text, not an image. However this worked fine in iOS 9.

    I have exactly the same issue. In web there is no quick look option. I now have to Open in New Tab. Now the hold menu includes Save Image. Close the tab.

     

    Well done Apple a one step process now takes three steps.

    Under iOS 9 there was as option to save all images in an email at once.

    In iOS 10 this option is still there but available only after pressing a picture for some time. However I noticed that not all pictures are saved. I get many emails with multiple pictures, while saving only part are saved and some are not.

    Any solution or suggestion?

    Got it.  You have to use the 3-D Touch options, some of which i'm finding are quite useful. 

     

    touch and hold on th image until the image comes to the foreground.  Notice an upward arrow at this point.  Without letting up yet, slide the image up.  A box with the options of 'save image' and 'copy' appear.  choose save image, and find it in your photos app.  HOORAY!
