Camera question Galaxy Ultra 21

Seems none of my videos 9 or 10 seconds can be sent to my gmail without me getting the Exceeded the 25mg error message. No techie here at all and am really unclear how to fix this. These videos, which I only do once in a while for church functions, cannot be sent to email for me to download onto our church Facebook page. I do not have FB on my phone and will not add it and besides, I normally have a few pics to add to this video as well. Appreciate it. (I would like to do slightly longer videos as well if possible)

Sounds like Samsung link sharing is just what you're looking for. Go into Samsung Gallery, select your video, then tap the sharing icon at the bottom, then tap Quick Share. This will upload your photo or video to a Samsung server and give you a link to it that you can email to yourself, and then you can download the file from that link in the email.

Thanks. This seemed to work but when I sent the test to my wife is said it was over the 25mb and would send as a Google Drive attachment. But it did seem to send so just waiting for her to check it when she can.

I don't know why it's telling you that. It can't be over 25MB. You're only emailing a link. And make sure you're using the Samsung Gallery to share from. If you use the sharing in the Google Photos app, it'll use a Google server to upload to, and there's a chance that they could downgrade the quality of the video/photo you upload via the link sharing. I don't believe Samsung link sharing will downgrade. Perhaps a little experimentation would help clarify.

Thanks. I'll certainly try and figure this out.
