Is it possible to upload photos that are more than 3mb? If you want good photos I don’t think 3MB limit is good

Hello @SiaBayl

There is one more option to include photos through the HTML route.

There we do not face any such limit.

However, the option is not available on the phone & we have to do that through a desktop only.

You will find useful information related to that in this link

@C_T thanks again for responding. I’ll have a look at that next time I have a bit more time. Hopefully the mobile version would have that feature too. Enjoy the rest of your day.

Hi @SiaBayl the limit is to ensure the performance of Connect for everyone. I use https://squoosh.app/ as an easy way to reduce the size of my images to pot them here on Connect. Works on any device. It is easy to reduce the size without impacting quality too much.
