unable to send pictures from Samsung A53 to iPhones

[unionhouse]

I am unable to send pictures using 'Text Messages'  from my Samsung A53 to anyone with an iPhone.  

I am able to send & receive pictures to all Android cell phones.   I only have issues with iPhones.   

My Samsung Software is up to date.  I have checked and re-checked my SMS/MMS is 'on/enabled' etc.

Without having to send pictures via another App, is there a simple workaround?

Thank you

Good Day.

One of the reasons you might be having this problem is the file sizes of your MMS are too large to be sent over the air. Also check to see if the iPhone MMS is turned on or off. You won't get the message if it is not turned on. Have the iPhone user verify that this feature is turned on. To enable MMS: Open Settings > Messages and tap the MMS toggle if it isn't already on. Try turning this feature on, and then check to see if you still have a problem.

Take care.

iOS 18 and above is subtly different. Settings ==> Apps ==> Messages ==> MMS Messaging. On/Off

me again ... the iPhone user has MMS enabled ... that makes sense once you mentioned the file size is too large.

many thanks

Bell won’t allow photos of more than 20 meg in total, in my experience.

Hi ... I wanted to let you know I resized my pictures and the iPhone user received them!!  

Thank you again for solving my issue.
