Help Messaging app Inquiry

[Phalon4]

Hi, I was wondering if there was messaging app in Google Store that had an attachment key to send music files? I've searched through so many but I can't find any that had that option. Do anyone know of one that's works pretty good?

Texting file size limits for attachments is relatively small. MMS is limited to either 300 KB or 600KB. A lot of the third-party texting services allow bigger files, for example WhatsApp allows up to 16 MB but that's as long as both sender and recipient are using the WhatsApp app. So depending on what texting app and service you're using, unless everyone you're exchanging music files with is using the same service, you've got to be selective when you use SMS/MMS to exchange files. A lot of services even scale down high res images/vids if they're too big. You'd be better off using email or the file sharing capabilities of a service like Dropbox for larger files.

Yup. On Android you need to use something else other than the built in messenger. iPhones do this via iMessage which works like Viber or Whatsapp where there is a server which stores these files, hence bigger capability of sending files. Google tried this a few years ago with Hangouts, which basically is their version of a chat+sms service capable of this. But for some unknown reason, most Android users seem to have ignored it.

Hey thanks for the info but this ALCATEL ONE TOUCH FIERCE XL stock messaging app has a 1264kb file size limit that's not too bad. Handsent messaging app has its own server where one can upload and also store files in the paid version. I found this to be pretty good.
