I can't download multmedia messages in the message app.

I can't download mms attachments in the S6 message app. I always get the "failed to download attachment from multimedia message. Try again later" response. The attachments are pictures sent from my wife's iPhone 6s.

On other phones, I've found that "energy saving" apps like Juice Defender can mess with MMS. Running any energy saving apps or security apps?

Also, make sure that mobile data is on and you have a good connection.

Thanks Anna,
It is a brand new phone, I'm pretty sure (very sure) that I'm not running any security apps and I'm not trying to save any power.
But thanks for answering.

Mobile data turned on like suggested earlier? You can not retrieve mms via WiFi.
