How do you move a video from Camera to a file

[Robert Peirce]

I have a directory in "Files on my iPhone where I store videos. I
Airdropped a video to my iPhone and it went into Camera. How do I move
it to the video directory?

Hi Robert,

I was waiting for someone to help you who uses the native iOS tools, where
I have absolutely zero problems moving video around into any visible iOS
directory, but I use non-Apple methods to move files and folders around.

Given I can explain to you a non-Apple method, I will, but only if nobody
has an answer for you using the established Apple methods since my methods
turn the entire iOS device into, essentially, a USB read/write stick.

Let's give the Apple aficionados a chance to help you the "Apple Way".
o If that doesn't work, in a few days, I'll tell you the non-Apple way.

BTW, what is your desktop operating system? Mac? Linux? Windows?

Photos — Select video — click box with arrow — Save to Files....

Aha!! That doesn't show. I have to push the screen up to reveal it. So
easy. Thanks.

Hi Robert Peirce,
I'm happy for you that badgolferman was able to help you.
o None of the apologists piped up to help, which was duly noted.

If, in the future, you want to turn your entire iOS device into a temporary
read/write USB stick, then take a look at this tutorial I wrote to help.

o An elegant solution to managing digital files on ANY iOS, Android, Windows, or Linux device SIMULTANEOUSLY over USB using zero additional software (other than the native OS)
