Need the ability to send photos from keyboard directly. Or be able to share/send images straight to the clipboard. iOS has had this feature for a long time now. We have no way of pasting multiple photos to Instagram and other social media (e.g. stories where you can only share one photo.)

Edit: Since people seem confused, here's a little exercise. I've shared a picture straight from the gallery to Instagram story. Now I'm in editing phase. Now what do I do if I want to have more photos from my gallery in there? The app itself does not have an option to put more images like how you would in stickers. Since it's built for ios, they expect you to be able to do that with your clipboard.

What do you mean by direct insert? What I meant was being able to upload images from your gallery on your keyboard. Or at least copy them to clipboard. You have no way of doing that as of the moment.

..That's not what I'm talking about. please Reread my post. that feature you are looking for is exclusive to messaging. Not in story or other posts. I'm not going to tolerate you forcing a solution that I do not need to a problem that I do not have. Please reread the post.

Adding detail info here. Tenacle, are you talking about clipboard on keyboard?
You can access by clicking 3 dots on keyboard, click clipboard. See attached photo.

I'm talking about uploading images to clipboard. I know how to access the clipboard and I know screenshots would send a copy of it to clipboard. But that's about it.

Hey @Tenacle, What you said is correct, we can’t add multiple images in stories but we can add multiple images in the feed(to post) and there is no option to upload images to the clipboard. Whenever a screenshot is captured, it will be directly saved on the clipboard.

Yes. Thank you for understanding the problem. Doing a screenshot is the only way, but it's also kind of annoying how edited ones are not copied to the clipboard.

Since we have a way via screenshots to copy images to the clipboard, it would be nice if we could pipe that feature and enable manually uploading images to the clipboard.
