Text Message Slide Show Tiny

[Tristan944]

When someone sends me multiple pictures as a slideshow in a text message, the image is so small I can barely see it. Anyone know how to make the images larger? You can see in the attached image how small it is, it's up there at the top middle.

It's probably because of the 1.2 MB filesize limit for attachements to a single MMS message. If the person is sending multiple photos attached to one message, then the phone is probably compressing each photo down to very low res in order to meet the filesize limit. Tell your friend to send each photo as an individual messages.

Is this consistent with all MMS you receive?

Or from certain people?

It's consistent with everyone sending a slideshow. Even if it's only two pictures, they are displayed incredibly small.
