Cannot send photo as attachment with email from Galaxy A25 phone

When I send email through Gmail, a text will go thru. When I send email w/pic, It is sent, but I never receive it. I am sending it to my PC.

Thank You.

That is something you'd have to take up with Google. It could be the file size of the photo is more than the limit, so Gmail disattaches it. Why not just direct transfer the picture from your phone to computer?

I checked the size of pic. Sending it to my computer was a test. If I cannot send it to my computer, I am assuming can't send anything to anyone else. Also, thank you for your prompt reply.

Yeah. Use your phone charging cord plug one end in phone and one in computer and upload

[usery6dnD9NGDh]

That is not what I'm trying to accomplish here. I want to be able to send a pic, etc., to others. Sending it to my computer was a test. And I can't. And one of the first things I did was check file size. Thanks.

You can also try sending the photo via a Samsung Quick Share Link.

Thank you sir, I will try that.

If you've not used Quick Share Link before, here's a great video on Quick Share and Quick Share Link that should help. Go to time stamp 4:46

Hey Dan, thanks for your response.

Dan, I'm only trying to send an occasional pic. And they are only about 2, 2.5 mbs. I figured I could just send something that small as an attachment. I just bought this phone not too long ago and am just now getting to know the features. It is a Galaxy 25 A.

Thanks again for your help.

If you and the recipient both do not have RCS texting, than most likely the photo will get compressed, which will result in poor image quality.

With Samsung Quick Share Link you can send images and files up to 10GB, and they're never compressed.
