Please answer me this:

I have an LG G3 and it is my first android device. I enjoy it for the most part, but why is it I can send multiple 2.5MB pictures via text with no problem, but a 1.5MB gif is too large?

Thanks in advance.

IIRC, my max is 1.5. Your app is probably shrinking the pics before sending them and can't figure out to shrink the gifs

Why are you trying to send large files in text messages?

The text apps compress pics to get them to your carrier limit. For gifs, 3rd party apps won't help if your carrier has a limit. Atts is like 600kb or 1Mb.

Won't help. You can only send so big a file through text. In textra you can adjust it, but you are still limited by your carrier, so it doesn't really matter at all
