How To Save Photos From Text Message On Huawei P9

Did your friend just send you a text message with a photo/picture that you want to save on your Huawei P9. Don’t worry, the process to save a photo from a text message on your Huawei P9 is very easy and we’ll explain how to do it below.

Even though you can use several different messaging apps like WhatsApp or Kik, this guide will explain how to save pictures from a text message when using the default Messages app that Huawei includes. If instead you use another text messaging app, the process will be a little different compared to our instructions.

When it comes to saving a photo from a text message or a MMS (Multimedia Message) the saved photo will be saved in your photo gallery. Once you have saved the picture on your Huawei P9, you can then share it on Facebook, Instagram, email or set it as your new background image. But before you can do any of that, follow the instructions below to learn how to save a photo from a text message on the Huawei P9 smartphone.
