Can't Text Video from iPhone to Android

I am unable to send videos from my iPhone via text to Android devices that I DID NOT record with my iPhone. If I take a video with my iPhone, no problem.


For example, I have Amazon Blink security cameras at my home that automatically send videos of movement to my iPhone. I then want to forward the video to a family member who has an Android Device. When I try to, I receive an error message every time that says, Message Failed to Send. This happens regardless of how short the video is. Even 1 second.


I always keep my iPhone updated and most recently have been running iOS 15.4. After spending hours/days searching for the answer with no success, I decided it must be my iPhone, so just upgraded to the iPhone 13 a couple of days ago. I'm still having the same problem!


Please help!


Thank you in advance!
