A 100MB file transfer over MMS? I'm not saying you're lying, but recognize that is highly abnormal and most carriers aren't going to support anything near that high. 100MB would be a huge upgrade for most people over MMS.
I have no idea what carrier this user is with and I agree that sounds absurd. Photos and videos are automatically downgraded before being delivered. The file size limit is typically below 5MB. Videos are like 480p and photos are 720p. I hate sending photos through MMS and would rather use data with a different messaging app if RCS isnt available.
He said it's Verizon.
Ah I missed that. Thanks.
In any case, I think this user is confused. See here: https://www.verizon.com/support/knowledge-base-14641/
I think this is where the confusion stemmed from.
Makes sense, thanks for clearing that up!
"Verizon Messages" is RCS.
