IOS – Transferring photos from “Documents by Readdle” app to Camera Roll without uploading it to cloud or connecting to a PC

I have found that that the photos that I have added to the Documents by Readdle app are not visible to any other app on my iPad.

I recently installed a GIF maker app which is not able to find any photos that are not inside camera roll.

How do I make it see the photos in Documents by Readdle app without having to upload it to cloud or connecting iPad to my computer?

Documents by Readdle has a feature using which you can export images to Camera roll on your iPad. You can either export images individually, or select more than one images and export them all in one go.

To export a single image to your Camera roll, do the following:

  1. Open the Documents app, locate the image you wish to export and tap on the options button (three blue dots) towards the bottom right of the image icon.
