How to move mask to a different layer?

I’m having trouble moving the mask to the original photo it’s supposed to be on. I’m using my iPhone and I have two layers: the original photo and the edited photo I used to create the mask. I need to move the mask from the edited photo layer to the original photo layer so I can mask the original instead. I’ve done it before, but I can’t remember how I did it.

    Hi ​@knowledgeable_Zenith80b5,

    Thanks for reaching out. Since you’re working in Photoshop on iPhone, I’m attaching a short video demonstrating the steps to move/apply the mask to the other layer.
     

    I think seeing the workflow will be much easier than trying to describe each tap in text.
     

    Please give those steps a try and let us know if you run into any trouble.
