Hi there KENAXION, let's see what we can do here. 

Are you able to save your images locally on your device by tapping on the "share" option? 

Give it a try and let me know if the issue persists. Cheers!

      Have you tried rebooting your device and made sure that you don't have any pending OS updates?

      How about connecting to a different WiFi network or via cellular data?

        Hello Lusil,

         

        As I mentioned originally I have no pending IOS updates. I've also reboot several times, switched wifi, no wifi, the app is up to date, but the outcome is still the same - I'm still unable to save anything from the app to my phone when I used to be able to do so.
