Why am I no longer able to save photos from iMessages to my camera roll?

[iMore Question]

All of a sudden I can't save photos that family sends me in messages. I click "save image" and nothing happens. It always saved the pictures to my camera roll before yesterday.

Re: save message images

Have you tried rebooting your device and then trying again?

In the mean time, until you figure it out, try choosing email rather than "save image". Email photo to yourself, then try save to camera roll.
