Put that together and it is difficult to do in IOS. Flickr is a pain in the neck when it comes to link/embedding images. Safari is a pain in the neck when it comes to copy and paste.

It's still pretty new so it hasn't gotten all of the features of the android versions yet, but it's coming together. There's a mobile version of Firefox now for iOS.
Why? Because Apple would prefer to encourage an App ecosystem that generates revenue for them. In some cases, it's iOS itself that causes the issues, the limitations of mobile web browsers is due to a lack of effort on their part. Mostly because it's so easy, and they've just made the choice to make it difficult to keep you in their app and to prevent external linkage. Why the designers of these sites and apps deliberately make it difficult to do something so damned simple is a constant source of pain for me. I get so frustrated by these things, in case you didn't notice. (no image posted because this is not a direct link to the image)Ĥ) Go to your desktop machine and a big boy web browser. Realize it's the short URL to the flickr image page, give up. Click the Share button (looks like a little Reply to button from email)ģf. Ignore fact that half of the app doesn't work because Yahoo fired all the engineers who were working on it.ģd. (no image posted because it is impossible to simply grab a URL in Safari in iOS)ģ) Download and open the Flickr App because that's how people are expected to use the internet now.ģa.

I know how to web, why are you making this difficult? Save Image? Copy? Damnit, iOS, I just want the URL. Find the image size you want and display itĢc. (no image posted because it is impossible to select text in iOS on Flickr's website.)Ģ) Still in Safari, go to View/Download All Sizes (the little dropdown arrow on the bottom of your picture)Ģb. Pull your hair out trying to select the text in the box and pasting it into your message (as Amin said, be sure to make sure you have properly formatted BBCode). Select either Embed or BBCode (I have both on mine, IOS9.2, iPad version)ġc.
Click the Share button (the thing that looks like a Reply arrow from email)ġb. Open your image in your photostream (after clicking multiple times because flickr's mobile UI is busted),ġa. I'm going to try not to rant about how dissatisfied I've become with Flickr over the past few years and answer your question. I'm new, but this post tickled me enough to sign up.
