Hi all new member here, I'm wondering how to add a picture to a text message? Is there an easy way to do this?
Thanks in advance, having trouble with the concept of what my sighted wife says is tapping and holding to copy or paste.
Thanks,
Kurt

Hello Kurt,

To attach a picture to a text message:

1. Open the message conversation (or start a new message).
2. Flick right with one finger until you reach the "Attach Media" button.
3. Double-tap on the "Attach Media" button, and you will be taken to a list of pictures and videos from which you can choose the picture you want.

Hope this helps,

Michael

Hi. Michael has it almost perfect. Once you find a photo, down the bottom of the screen, there's a choose button. Also, when you send a message it will just have the picture, no text. If you want to add in something like honey your dress looks beautiful, there's an add comment field. Double tap, write what you want, then click send. Hope that helps.
