Attach a caption to an existing Photo in Camera Roll

I have an iPad, 3rd Generation, IOS 9.3.5. I have a Family Photo in my Camera Roll that I would like to place the names of the Family Members according to their position in the Photo. Is that possible? If so, could you instruct me on how this is done?

Thanks Darrell

Hello Bob,


I hope you are well. Thank you for providing the sample in the above screenshot. But the screen shot is far too elaborate for me. I was just thinking about placing the following content just below the picture:



Steven Eng, Zane Mileur, Kai Lim Eng, Judy Eng Nakatsu, Emma Eng, Bea Eng


Standing: Sylvia Schulz, Meak (Joselle)Lee-Chao, Cameron Chao, CJ Chao, Mable Eng, Barb Eng Gilardo, Doris Eng, Meyee (Bettina) Lee Mileur

3rd row:behind CJ: Melody Mileur, Janelle Gilardo, Chris Eng, Ross Eng,

Good Afternoon Bob,


I like this picture with the picture of headshots with name caption below. I do not believe that my photo needs to be cropped though. But for future use, I have been trying to figure out how to take a screenshot on the iPad plus edit the picture, but I am failing. I thought I read about how to take a screenshot in the iPad Tips, but I am unable to locate it.


one other question, if I can figure this out. When I save this, will it go back into the Camera Roll with the caption below the photo?

Aloha Darrell.

Starting with your last question. If you add the caption in Notes then tap save it stays in Notes, the original stays in Photos. Because it isn't added to Photos is why I took the screenshot then cropped.

To take a screenshot place your fingers on the home and power buttons. Now smoothly press and release both buttons. The screen will flash as you release both buttons, the screenshot will appear in Photos.

Let me know how you're doing on taking a screenshot and when you're ready we'll crop some Photos.

Stay well. Bob.
