Mobile Save

So I disabled right click, so people can save photos. However on a mobile device you can't save the photos. iPhone. I tried long press hold, nothing. Only option seems to be screenshot which I don't find "professional" enough. Am I missing something or?

Most of the time we try to keep people from doing that. Maybe look at free downloads so they can just click the download button

Tried this option and while it will work for client galleries, it did not work for a blog post.

Example. I race motocross, and since I'm there I take photos of other riders. I upload the photos to draw traffic to my site and don't care who downloads my photos. And almost 85% of my views are from mobile devices. I disable right click so they can hop on the computer to save them, but that's just to "inconvenient" for most haha.

Bringing this back up again, as it's an issue for me. I don't want to make my clients or viewers do a second step just to download their photos they already paid for or photos I don't care if they download. Right now most are screenshots and they look absolutely terrible, in return making my work look worse.

I understand you said most don't do this, but there is already a disable right click feature which works great on computers and I believe Android devices, just not iPhones? Maybe...Either which way, there has to be a simple solution to enable mobile save. Long press, save to camera roll.

Please look into this

If you turn off disabling right click in Settings -> Admin/Main Settings (setting it to NO), people can long press and save on the phone.
