The Messages app on the Bark Phone is used for texts, including picture and video attachments.
To save valuable cellular data, Bark will compress images attached to a text message.
If a video attachment exceeds 25MB, it will display an error message that says:
- Message attachment size exceeds max MMS limit
- Couldn't send message, error code: 5
- or Error: Failed to allocate 71598336 byte allocation with 1...
The good news is, the video can still be sent via text as long as it's under 25 MB.
