That would explain the irritating (daft!) lack of function. And there I was, expecting the design side would be all hunky-dory...(I must live in a dream world!).
I had a quick trawl & found lots of basic apps that write on the image itself & then send it as a jolly postcard to Aunt Betty et al, ideal for many. I then found the ultra basic, free Jpg Story which just adds simple text to the bottom of an image, then saves to camera roll, fine for now till I get something more fancy. (Yes, Photo Manager Pro looks promising.)
Then I wondered if clicking the scary "Delete everywhere" for the un-named copy, also sitting in Camera Roll, would delete both (or more copies put into other albums), considering them as "identical" images. Or not. Seems not---the label gives that particular copy a unique identity. So perhaps that's a possible simple workaround to this silly problem?
Hmm, understand your dilemma, had the same issue, have a look at these apps, iPhoto, has editing and album management, it looks at the main photo app and builds from there, I also use photo manager pro, filterstorm ,laminar,to name a few.
