So I've finally moved over to Android from iOS which obviously means I've taken all my .MOV files from my iPhone and put them on my SDCard for the S8. I understand they don't appear in the Gallery and I have to play them through MX Player; I'm okay with this.
But now I can't seem to share .MOV files using WhatsApp. Why is this? It says the format is not supported? I have Googled this as much as I can and no one else seems to be having this problem as there are no threads about it? I know the solution is to convert the file to .MP4 but that's not viable long-term. I thought WhatsApp would be more neutral territory anyway, i.e. it supports .MOV files as I obviously didn't have this problem when sharing videos from my iPhone WhatsApp with Android users.
Any way to fix this problem? I should surely be able to share .MOV files on WhatsApp with other people. Thanks.
