Native Messenger 1MB text limitations
I like using the native Samsung messaging app on my Galaxy S8 but I always get a notice, when sending gifs and such, that the max size is 1MB. Is there a fix for this? Do I have a setting wrong? ...
Thanks for giving those steps that Marissa recommended a shot. From doing some digging, at this time, there is no way to have the native messaging app auto-compress files before sending. The best recommendation would be to utilize a 3rd party app such as the one you mentioned above.
¡Hola, @apexdestroyer! I'm glad you were able to answer your basic question using the info in the Problemas con mensajes de foto y video (MSM) document. My basic understanding here is that a third party messaging app would be bound to the same basic network rules in place for native/stock messaging -- so I don't think that a third party app is going to be able to send an MMS file over 1MB, either. Have you had a chance to give it a shot? If I'm wrong here, I'd love to know!
