Trouble posting photos from my new iPhone

[dbrannon79]

Has anyone recently had issues posting photos from their phone? I recently upgraded my phone from a iPhone 10 to an iPhone 15 pro and now every photo I take and try to post I get a message saying the file size is too large!

I’ve tried looking in my phone settings and even tried editing the photo size but nothing works

Yeah- the new cameras take photos with more pixels so that it’s more clear, especially when zooming in. So it’s too much information.
But if you do a screenshot of the pic - that will post.

I’ll try that

The screenshot works. I also just discovered that if I choose take photo from the site instead of from my camera roll it also works!

My iphoney 15 pro did that too for quite a while.
I’d then go to that little bars thing with the three dots, right of center on the bottom of the screen shot.

Tap that, then the double 90* angles and it will say crop.
Then You can move the borders more centered around what You want to show, tap done at the top, then come back and upload the cropped version.

For some unknown magical reason my phoney quit doing that and now it just uploads the pics i take.

Mine has been doing the same thing. maybe they opened up for larger file sizes here in the forums recently?

I too, have a 15 PRO. I post pics often in other forums. I don't post a lot using my phone, but, I do using my MacBook Air. Therefore, when I get the message a Pic is too large, I minimize the current screen, locate the pic in "Photos" copy it to the desktop. On the desktop, open "Preview" App, select "Recent", locate the Photo and open. In the Tool bar above, select "Tools", select adjust size. Here you'll see just how large the file is and can adjust the size. Also, check your phone's camera settings, if you have "Live" setting selected, turn it off. This adds to the + sizes.
