Problem texting pictures with Verizon Note 9

[felloffthetruck]

The only app that I can text a picture with is the Verizon Messages+ app.
The stock Samsung and all other SMS apps will not send a picture out. The little circle just spins and spins for minutes and then fails.

Anyone have and idea what my problem could be?

Is this a Verizon problem where they are forcing me to use their app?

I'm on Verizon and I use Textra and I send pictures fine. Don't know why you're having issues, but it's not because Verizon is forcing their messaging app.

No issue with mine. using the stock messages app. I always uninstall Verizon messages during setup. Maybe try that and see if it works not having it enabled?

Also no issues here.. When it spins and fails it could be you don't have a strong signal at that moment in your area to push the photo through.
