I am not sure if it exists for Android but I am using an app called Image Size that does compress the photos anywhere between 5 and 10 times.

Odd, I upload full resolution pics from my galaxy 8 all the time. I have never gotten a file too large message.

Upload them to imgur and from there you can take a link that displays the pictures instantly on the forum.

+1 - definitely would be the easiest method and has been my go-to for any issues that I've experienced - I just don't know why some of my pics, when uploaded directly, sometimes are re-oriented/appear sideways... :ugthink: lol whatevs :roll:

Sometimes I will download my photo to canva online photo editor to crop and edit the photo. But then it saves it as a huge png file, so I then load it into a converter site to get it back to jpg, and the load it into a compression program to reduce the file size.
