How To Send A Long Video On Iphone – Complete Guide

What if you’ve captured an incredible movie on your iPhone that you can’t wait to show off to your friends? Well, if it’s greater than 25 gigabytes in size, which is the case for the most majority of films of any significance, then forget about sending it over email.

You’ll also have trouble delivering a movie that’s longer than three and a half minutes over iMessage or SMS since you’ll almost certainly get a “Message Not Delivered” message.

Fortunately, there are many workarounds for sending huge films from your iPhone that are effective in circumventing these restrictions. The easiest of all is a built-in function called AirDrop, which you’ve probably heard of before and which has no file size restriction.

Sending Large Videos via AirDrop

AirDrop, which sends data via Bluetooth, allows you to share huge files to other people. In order to use this feature, they must be linked to iCloud and have Bluetooth enabled.

1. Make sure the target recipient is within a few dozen feet of your phone (and that they have AirDrop enabled in their settings), then open the camera app and choose the video to be transmitted from the list of options.

2. Select the share icon, which is located in the bottom left corner of the screen (it looks like a box with an upward-facing arrow extending from it).

3. In the AirDrop area, choose the name of the person who will receive the message. Once they have confirmed, the shipping process will begin.

Send large videos via iCloud

In addition to using iCloud, you may transmit huge files over the internet using Mail Drop, another Apple application.

Choose the video to send from the Photos app and then touch on the share button.

2. Select the mail icon on your phone’s screen and wait while it creates the video.

3. After you’ve finished composing and sending your email, look for a pop-up box that says, in part, “This attachment may be too big,” and that offers the option of using Mail Drop. To send the movie over iCloud, choose “Use Mail Drop” from the drop-down menu. The receiver will be able to download it from the cloud within a short period of time.

Share large videos on iPhone using Google Drive

Google Drive is a cloud-based storage system that can be accessed from any device, including your phone and PC, according to Google. Once you’ve uploaded a file to it, you’ll be able to share it with anybody who has an email account.

First, open (or download and then open) the Google Drive application on your smartphone.

2. In the bottom-right corner of the app, tap the bright plus (+) sign to expand it.

3. Select “Photos and Videos” from the drop-down menu that appears after selecting “Upload.”

4. Select the video that will be uploaded and begin the uploading procedure.

5. Once the video has been uploaded, locate it and click on the three dots to the right of it.

6. Select “Share” from the drop-down option that appears.

7. Enter any email address you wish to send the file to in the section that reads “People” at the top of the screen.
