I don't have an iPhone but would this help to reduce the size so that it can be uploaded ?

The restriction is there due to storage size and because people were loading full sized images. I run my screens at 1920x1200 and even then they didn't fit :shock: One of the unexpected side effects of having such high resolution cameras in devices nowadays.

I still use good old "paint" on windows "reduce size" on home page.
Save as "something else" to protect original and I'm usually looking for a round 200k or smaller file size. Which will do most pictures.
You can add simple text and pointers without getting too techy.
Hope it helps

There's an android app called Reduce photo size app which I use , I'm not sure if it's available for Apple.
