Using my IPhone, slect the image and just select the upper right three little circles which brings up a list of options. Then you select Export, then Save Image. This will save the image to your Photos. Not sure if there is a batch mode.

I don't have this option on my iPhone.
My menu says:
Share
Save as Scan
Make Available Offline
Rename
Copy
Move
Delete
Cancel
If I open the photo, I only get a "speech bubble" and a "circle with an i" in the lower left corner, and no three dots anywhere.

ZaphyR,
I don't know if you have resolved the issue. If not, make sure that the file you are trying to download on to your iPhone is indeed a photo formate, not pdf or others. Only a photo formate, e.g png/jpg, has the "save image" function when you click on the top right corner -> Export. Hope this helps
