Re: sending a video

Welcome to Android Central! The filesize limit for MMS (i.e., sending video or photos via text) is 1.25 MB, so it'll be very difficult to get any video down to that size. You could email the video, but Gmail's attachment limit is 25 MB. The best way is probably to upload the video to YouTube or to a cloud storage service like Google Photos/Drive or Dropbox, then share it privately with the recipient.
