Feature Request: An easy way to save images

Right now there doesn’t seem to be an easy way to save images on your feed. This would be great to have.

I don't know how it works on iOS but on android you just tap and hold the picture and then tap on safe. does it not work the same on iOS. i have never used iOS in my life. sorry if thats a dump question.

I checked, you need to open the post, then click on the image and then you can hold to save. It would be nice to hold and save from the feed.

I must be doing something wrong. Not working fine on iOS even after opening post. The picture stretches upon hold, then nothing happens

After opening the post you need to click again (you will see the 🔍 and ✖️ top right). Then you should be able to hold and save (popup). Tested it on Safari and Chrome.

This seems to work but it would be much better to have it accessible from the feed or post without needing to go into the image view.

The support for saving images was added yesterday. It probably will be developed further. I agree on that it would be nice to be able to save an image without going into the post.

+1 for being able to do this without the workaround
