Touch the image and it will be viewed bigger.

Then hold the Menu button.

A menu will come up.

Go for Settings - Save Image to save the image and it will be saved to your photo album.

Thank you. But I touch the image. It is viewed bigger. Then I open menu as you suggest, but all I get is Settings | Help | Report Bug. Any idea?

You can download chat shared photos on android. I saw a quick tip Here.

Can you summarize the contents of the site rather than just hyper linking it?

Open Facebook on your browser instead of running the Facebook. App. Tap on any photo to open the context menu with download option.

Touch and long press the image on the chat and on the context menu you will be able to see Save option.
Hit the Save option to download the image and go to your Gallery app where you can find the downloaded image.
