2. Locate the picture you want to save and tap and hold your finger on it until the contextual
menu appears.

Take a screenshot on an iOS device
For websites that don't let you save their images, or to share images of your iOS device's screen
(such as to show someone how to do something), use the screenshot feature in iOS to take a picture
of the screen.
1. On your iOS device, open the app, website, or anything else you want to take a picture of.
2. Press the Home button and the Sleep/Wake button simultaneously.
3. The screen should flash white and you should hear the camera shutter sound (unless your
device is muted). The screen image will reside in your Camera Roll album, as well as be
placed into Photo Stream.
Assign a Photo to an iCloud Contact
The beauty of having all your contacts linked and in sync among devices with iCloud is that a
change to a contact on one device is made to the same contact on all the others. One aspect of a con-
tact is the ability to assign a photo to the person, so that photo appears on your iPhone screen when
he or she calls you, for example, as Figure 5-15 shows.
You can take these photos easily on an iPhone and assign them to the contacts there, knowing
that the photos are then available on your other iOS devices and computers (such as in e-mail mes-
sage headers in your inbox on your computer). Of course, the image you assign to a person's contact
card doesn't have to be an actual photo — you can use any image, as Figure 5-15 shows.
1. Select a photo in the Photos app and tap the Share button ( ).
2. Tap the Assign to Contact option in the pop-over that appears, as Figure 5-16 shows.
3. Select the contact you want to assign the photo to from the list of contacts shown.
4. Resize and crop the image as desired using the expand and pinch gestures (to resize) and
scroll gesture (to crop), as Figure 5-16 shows.
5. Tap the Choose button to assign the image to the contact.
