Phone photo

[Hfd Cattle]

I used to be able to put photos on TFF with my phone . I now can't do it , as soon as I press to upload them it says 'the upload image is too big' What can I do to sort this out . It never used to happen .

Nothing has changed. I believe the limit is set at 16mb for images. Is it a new phone?

About 12 mths old but I used to be able to post them . I'm sure it's me or the phone but I don't know how to sort it .

So its not always done this on this phone then.

No . I was out ploughing couple of days ago and took a photo and it wouldn't work .
Tried again this morning with a cowcand calf and same thing happened .
Trouble is I'm not very 'tech' minded .
I don't think mine is an iPhone .

Using the web browser? Or APP?

I take a photo ,then go onto site ,press upload photo, then into gallery, press on which photo I want to show ,then it goes through the % of loading then at about 98% it says upload image is too big . I'm wondering if I can reduce it somehow on my phone ...but I don't really know what I'm doing. !

If you are running the the full 64MP size then I think they will be massive files and above our limit. My guess is your phone has done an update and maybe added live photos and this has made the files too big.

Are there options on the photo you can take - sorry I'm not a Samsung person.

Well one thing's for sure it's not an iPhone.

I never upload from the phone, always send to computer and then photoshop to reduce the size, it was essential when on a poor internet connection.

I get the same problem occasionally. I get round it by screenshoting the photo on my phone and then uploading the screenshot. The screenshot is a smaller file size than the original. It's a bit of a faff tbh though.

As soon as the photo is uploaded, TFF then reduces the size to sensible internet proportions which I think is 1920 x1200. But phone cameras are getting better and better. 8 years ago the same limit was 2MB - its now 16mb.
