Unfortunately iPhone doesn’t seem to be compatible with whatever software is used on this site.
Quite a few members have had the same problem. We’ve tried all sorts between us but have failed to get around the problem. Personally the only thing I haven’t tried is down loading an App. to change the type of file that Apple use to a compatible one. From what we could find out that could be the only way to do it. Changing the file size is quite easy if you want to try it yourself. There are several Apps available for Laptops and Desk computers that are free to down load. Not sure about phones but expect it’s the same. Choose the pic, down size the pixels and use the smaller version. Worth a try if you’ve a mind and patience to have a go. If we see your pics we’ll know you succeeded and then you can help us ;) ;D Title: Re: Photos on finds Post by: carling2 on June 25, 2020, 08:24:14 AM I defo had the same problem on this phone but not on the computer but anyways I got round the phone issue by going on Google app store and downloading a app simply called pic resizer (it works well just choose ya pics off your gallery custom size to smallest(I choose 25% then save, it does keep the original size as well still on phone so I post said image then delete the largest pic, saves on phone space)
