Cannot use Home Videos in Texts

I have enabled Wi-Fi calling but I cannot access nor copy and paste videos from Home Videos into a text message.

I can look at videos through Apple TV app but cannot do anything with them other than watch them....

Messages sent to other cellular telephones containing attachments such as videos are sent using MMS via your cellular carrier.

MMS requires both the following:

Settings > Messages > MMS Messaging = “on”
Permission to use MMS from your cellular carrier. This may cost extra.

Wi-Fi calling is irrelevant. I’m not sure why you mentioned it in both your posts.

In fact, if anything, it may interfere with MMS. Perhaps turning it off would help.

I turned MMS Messaging On and am also using Wi-Fi Calling but still cannot send or share Home Videos on the Iphone. The only way I am able to send videos through text is to email the video to my email and share the video from Email on my Iphone to the text recipient...

It did not work either way on or off..... The solved button was pushed wrongly. The problem still exists...
