How to send videos on S4?

[Timback]

What is the best way to send videos from the S4? I have tried to trim the video , but it still says too large to send. I can't email or message.
Any suggestions? How is everyone else sending videos?
Thanks

I use YouTube and g+instant upload

How do they work? can you send videos to your friends from there? Why can the iPhone attach videos and the Samsung can not?
Doesn't make sense.

It can, but just like with iPhone (or most other phones), the video files have to be compressed for MMS . Make sure u have this setting on "Limit for MMS"

Which is useful for the rare times you're near the person you're sending the video too...

As others said, G+ and unlisted videos on YouTube are simplest.

iPhone's can send large videos to each other because of iMessege, which sends the file through a data connection as opposed to SMS/MMS. You can send videos via MMS, though they'll be terrible quality due to file size constraints via cellular networks.

It can, but as with iPhone, u can't send large file videos. Make sure u have this setting on "Limit for MMS"

Yes, you can compress the video for MMS. and In fact is is there. I have a AT&T S4 and the option is in Recording Mode settings. (just like Smooth's pic.)

Use some type of file sharing app. Dropbox, Google drive, copy etc

I have tried this before in order to be able to send it in a message but the problem is that the quality is pretty bad. I have the settings to the highest one and still looks bad.....
