A photo or video will not send
A message that failed shows a warning mark instead of the picture. Tap it to try again.
Worth checking:
- Whether the title of the chat list says Connecting. If it does, the app cannot reach the server and everything waits.
- Very large videos take a while. The app compresses them before sending, and on a long clip that is not instant.
- Photo permission, in the iPhone's Settings under Fariin.
If one particular photo fails every time while others go through, tell us, because that is a bug rather than your connection.
