I can't send a picture or an animated GIF, what can I do?

  • Updated September 09, 2021 06:43

The file you are trying to send might not be supported.

Wire supports PNGs and JPEGs, but does not support TIFF files. You can upload animated GIF files up to 5MB in size to play inside your conversations.
