Sending GIFs via MMS or text message on iPhone 6

When my friends send me a GIF via text, it pops up on my screen running as expected.  However, when I send one, the animation doesn't begin until it's clicked on, and even then, it runs half-fast.  Any idea why my phone can't keep up with others' iphones?

If the GIF on your phone is fine and it is not fine on your friends phones, then their phones are the problem, not yours.

  • Cannot send photo or contact as text message

    Running the newest update 8.1 (10/22/2014) on a iPhone 5S. I STILL cannot share a contact via text message. I STILL cannot send a photo as a text message when I select a photo directly from my camera roll/photo albums. I can send a photo in an EMAIL directly from the camera roll/photo albums, but not in a text message. I can start a text message and then click on the camera icon and attach the photo. I haven't been able to do this since iOS 8 came out.
    Sharing a contact and a photo via text messages were things I could do with iOS 7.  Anyone else having this problem?

    With iOS 7 you would open your camera roll or album, select the photo you wanted, click on send as a message, then it would take you to the text screen where you could see the photo being sent as it asked you for the recipient's phone. Now when I click on send as a message it takes me to the text screen, but as you can see, the photo is not attached. Same thing with a contact…I can click on "share contact as a text message" but when it takes me to the text screen, nothing is attached.

  • I can't send a contact card through text messaging?

    everyrtime i try to send a cantact card through text messaging the message never goes through. i have all of the message setting set properly, sms, mms, imessage,etc are all on. it there another setting that i am missing?

    You can't send a contact over SMS on any phone. If you send it as a normal text message, it will go as an MMS if you have that service enabled. You can send contacts to other iMessage users if your have a WiFi or cellular data connection.

  • Send picture via MMS from iphone

    google is finding lots of hits on this question but have not figured out the answer.
    how do I send a picture from my "photos" and send it via MMS to another phone?
    Also how do I receive a picture via MMS to my iphone?

    You cannot text a picture on the iPhone
    However you can email one to a MMS compatible phone if you know the service provider for the specific phone number . If you know it then you email the picture to one of this addresses(just match the service provider)
    Alltel = [email protected]
    AT&T = [email protected]
    Boost Mobile = [email protected]
    Cingular (AT&T) = [email protected]
    Einstein PCS = [email protected]
    Sprint = [email protected]
    T-Mobile = [email protected]
    US Cellular = [email protected]
    Verizon Wireless = [email protected]
    Virgin Mobile = [email protected]
    When X is the phone # you want to send the picture to
    You can somewhat recieve a MMS via AT&T's viewmymessages.com website but it is very slow and not reccommended

    I cannot send a picture in a text message.

    Make sure that MMS is turned on in Settings>Messages. Also, contact your carrier to make sure that your account is properly provisioned for MMS.

  • Send Photo from camera in text message

    If I try to attach a photo to a text message, it appears in the message but then I get a notification saying"cannot send try again". Can you please tell me how I can send a photo in a text message. Thank you.

    Hi @Selbeep ,
    All the Nokia phones I have used will scale the images automatically to be within the accepted MMS limits.
    Please first clear all messages stuck in the outbox, then try to send a picture to yourself?
    A restart of the phone is also required after altering the settings.
    The above should also be completed if the provider helped you set up the phone, but it is all that I can think of.

    It does do it.
    Check your mms settings.
    Menu > Messaging > Settings > Multimedia Message > Image Size.
    If it's set to original then it will be too big to send. Try large or small instead.

    Just the name? Don't ever recall that being a feature. However, for Mail and Messages (and a few other apps): Settings app > General > Text Size

  • Ipad and iPhone not able to send photos via email or text

    My iPad2 and iPhone (5s) are not able to send photos via emails or texts. They communicate with each other in sharing the photos but I can't send them out anywhere. Anyone have suggestions?

    You can choose Outlook Express by following steps:
    1) Launch Starter Edition.
    2) Choose Edit menu >> Preferences or press Ctrl + K, to launch preference dialog.
    3) Choose Email from side menu on preference dialog.
    4) in Client, 'Send Email Using :' set"Outlook Express" and press 'Ok'
    You are reasy to share your images.Let me know if it helps.
    Cheers!!!

  • My iPhone 4 sending a iMessage to another iPhone user, the message will send then says not delieverd? So I have to send it as a normal text message .

    Hey! So I'm having a problem with sending an IMessage to another iPhone user and they are having the same problem. The problem is; is that I send a message to them it will attempt to send then will say under the message that it was not delivered? So I send it as a normal text message. Weird part is that we both have full service and have the phone bills paid. Lol

    There is an earlier thread that was answered by an Apple employee that states they are seeing the iMessage and Facetime servers are down. It is unknown when they will return, however it generally is not an extended period of time.

  • I cannot send a photo nor a text message that contains a photo

    I cannot send a photo nor a text message that contains a photo from my iphone.  My cellular is on & my Wi-Fi.  I have tried sending a photo with both on, WiFi off & cellular on, and WiFi on with cellular on.  What else can I try?

    Try a reset: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until you see the apple, then let go. (No data loss)
