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.
I recently switched from AT&T to TMO and find this issues almost a deal breaker for me .I have been a long time Android user and never had this problem on AT&T using the stock messaging app. I downloaded Textra which solved this problem but creates 2 others. Textra doesn't support Android auto and I can no longer read my texts on my Garmin watch.
