Didn't realize the android app was out thank you for the info!!
It does on iOS.
With latest release you can tap the ellipse in the image viewer to bring up options to copy image to clipboard or download!
On iOS I can long press images and it gives a save option.
Yup. Long press on an image to do so on Android
To be noted that this works only for the PWA. The native Android app does not support saving the image yet
@aeharding@lemmy.world would you happen to know if I am unable to view the contextual long press menu for saving images that @bdonvr@thelemmy.club shared because I am on iOS 15.7?
Should work on iOS. Can you try restarting the app and let me know if that works?
I feel a bit silly now, but I did not try force closing the app or power cycling my phone. I was an Apollo user so I’m familiar with the long press contextual menu for saving to device, and I don’t recall it ever working on wefwef or Voyager on iOS 15.7.
I did however just go ahead and update to iOS 16.6 and it’s now working so I can’t say for certain if it was an OS requirement or just something that required a restart.
Works fine for me in Voyager. Long press the image, then select „Save to photos“.
Hmm good to know thank you. I might need to update iOS or reinstall Voyager. I’ve kept it updated, but I never reinstalled when it changed its icon and I am on iOS 15.7. Long pressing on photos doesn’t do anything for me regardless of whether I am on the feed, in the post, or looking directly at the image.
