Hi ​DiaandJim,

Welcome to Apple Support Communities. I understand that you'd like to know how to save photos that your husband has sent you from his iPhone to your iPad. I know keeping your photos in one place is important; I'd like to help. You didn't mention if you received these images via email or iMessage, but you can use the steps below for either:

Save a photo or video to Photos. Touch and hold the photo or video until a menu appears, then tap Save Image.

In Messages these steps apply as well:

Share, save, or print an attachment. Tap the attachment, then tap User uploaded file.

Copy an attachment. Touch and hold the attachment, then tap Copy.

Thank you Jeremy, I was doing as you instructed but without the options popping up, since receiving your reply I went ahead and tried again and yes it gave me the save option which I’m very happy about, it was sent via what’s app maybe i was too quick trying to save it when it arrived. Thanks for your help

Dianne
