    I used to just upload direct from my phone, but all of a sudden I get the “file to large” error?

    Bizarre, it’s working on mine now!
    Edit. Only screenshots. Actual photos say too big.

    New phone photo sizes are getting big. I think the Forum limit is 3.1MB - check the settings on your camera in case it's gone Super Pro

    20240427_082856.jpg Screenshot_20240427_082920_Photo Editor.jpg Yes , buy a new phone with a 200 megapixel camera and the files are too large to upload

    ...

    ( but e.g. the built in picture editor on my Galaxy S23 Ultra can reduce the image size so they can up load. ) ..or you can crop the massive image as above..

    Got a new phone last week. Instantly got the message about file too big.

    Megamegapixels innit.

    sometimes it works sometimes not.
    Sometimes now I screenshot the photo and upload that.
