iPhone 2.0 Allows Saving Photos from Safari

Tuesday April 15, 2008 6:26 pm PDT by Arnold Kim

Gizmodo reported that the latest iPhone 2.0 Beta firmware allows users to save photos from Safari directly to iPhoto.

We tried and it works: just hold your finger against an image for a longer time than usual and the popup dialog will appear.

Current versions of the iPhone offers no method to download photos from Safari, and the only way to get photos into the Photo application is through iTunes/iPhoto syncing.

Ooh one more thing! I'd like to be able to save higher quality pictures to the iPhone as well, as we can do with the iPod.

What's the point of being able to squeeze and zoom when iTunes automatically "optimizes" (reduces) the picture quality?

This is especially useful with pictures that contain words (comics, magazine scans).
