Files and photos
Enhanced
Share a photo or document with another operator over the air. Sending files takes time on radio, so the recipient is always asked to accept before anything transfers. Files & photos are part of Enhanced Messaging.
Send a file
- In a conversation, tap +.
- Choose a photo from the camera or your library, or a document from Files.
- Send it.
If you send a large photo, the app offers a smaller size so it transfers faster. Choose the size that fits your situation.
Receiving a file
When someone sends you a file, you’re notified and asked to Accept or Decline. Nothing transfers until you accept. You can accept from the app or from the notification.
Cancel a transfer
Either station can cancel a transfer while it’s in progress. The conversation returns to a normal state so you can try again.
Larger files take longer and are less reliable over radio. Send the smaller option when you can.
