I'm using a Samsung Galaxy S105G. The phone takes very large, high resolution photos, but I don't need that high a quality for some of the pictures I'm taking. They are usually for sending to somebody to look at on screen, not to print out.
While the Samsung e-mail app has an option to shrink the photos before sending, the Gmail app does NOT.
Also they wind up wasting a lot of space on my phone as work wants me to keep them for at least a month before I can delete them, and I might have as many as 50 photos on a job and they get upset if I say "I'm sorry, I have them backed up on my hard drive at home, but I removed them from my phone to free up space". Fortunately it is very rare that they request I resend photos after a (business) day or two and has only happened twice in 2.5 years.
So how can I set the phone to take smaller photos? I don't see ANY options about picture size in the camera settings, and I think I've looked everywhere and touched every unlabeled icon. The only thing that remotely affects things is the aspect ratio.
If you say "you need a different app", please recommend one that works with an S105G and won't spam me with 30 second commercials before I can take a picture, or push annoying pop-ups with advertising, and especially won't play noisy ads. I'm using this a work and I can't have it disrupting that.
It's not like I can get Google Play to display "Free apps only, but no intrusive ads". They ALL seem to have ads if they aren't paid.
