Ever come across an image while browsing the web on your iPhone that you’d just love to use as a wallpaper? Well, if you’re running iPhone Software Update 2.0 or newer, you can save images from Safari or Mail. Simply follow these instructions.
Surf to a webpage or email which contains an image that you want to save. Tap and hold on the particular image for 2-3 second and a dialogue (pictured below) will slide up asking if you’d like to save the image. Tap “Save Image” to confirm, and it’s immediately saved to your camera roll.
The following dialog box will come up and also ask you if you want to open the image, if it’s hot linked.
