How to save a screenshot in Ingress on iPhone without uploading it anywhere

ingressios

Since a couple of month Ingress has this share button on certain screens (most useful one is probably the player profile). If you press that, it opens a selection of where you want to share the picture, and takes a full-size screenshot.

On Android, you can just press the back-button and not do anything and the screenshot will end up as an image file in your phone's library (but in a separate folder). However, on iOS I cannot find the file. If you select G+ or similar target, you can upload it. But it doesn't go in the image library and it doesn't seem to go anywhere else.

I want to archive those screenshots. Where do they go?

I’m running iOS 7 and for me the screenshots do end up under Photos even when I press Cancel in the share settings. Perhaps you declined, when Ingress first prompted you for access to your photos. Check it from under iOS Settings -> Privacy -> Photos.
