texting pics

[dj928]

When I share a pic and choose text messaging, it shows all numbers associated with the contact, including home numbers. How do I set it so only mobile numbers show (since I can't text or send pics to home numbers)? Thanks.

You should be able to just tap the mobile number from the choices available and it will automatically be placed into the "To" box

yes that does work but it's easy to accidentally select the home or work number. I'd prefer to just have mobile numbers show and I thought I saw an option for that a while ago. I just can't remember how to get back there.

Depending on your phone model or contact software, you can long-press the mobile number in contacts and get a dialog allowing you to set that as the primary contact address. That should then come up by default when texting by contact name.

Yes I tried that too but all numbers still show with no preference to the number set as default.

Ah - sharing the pic directly comes up differently than initiating the text and then including the pic - got it.

Hmmmm - good question.
