One option is to open the Photos app on the phone, tap the photo to select it, tap the share icon square with up arrow) at the bottom left of the screen, tap the Mail icon.


Another way: Add email attachments in Mail on iPhone - Apple Support

How or where do you go on your iPhone to send a picture taken with the camera button to your email address?I am so sorry but i have tried both ways so maybe when it did an update it changed something in the settings or general but it just wont send the photos to my computer!

If you have any other suggestions please advice!

I really miss being able to do it with my mail app.

Was so easy!

Okay! So when I bring the pic up on the camera button on my IPHONE 12, that I want to send, and I press the mail envelope icon to send , and it asks, what size do you want to send it , small, medium etc. I tried small and then medium after, again. it makes a little noise, like it sent but when I check my email, to see if the pic is there, it never is!

I also tried that up arrow and it appears, like it sends, as well but doesn't!

I thought at first it was because AOL changed its format, without asking anyone if they wanted it changed because that was when the trouble began but I tried it, as i said to other people's email and another one, I have of my own and same thing. Does not go through!

I contacted apple support but they said, its not the IPHONE!

Is there somewhere in the settings maybe got changed through one of the IOS updates that I could go into and fix it, do you think. It was such a nice convenience.

On here right now I see a place to insert pics and I know it would work.


I have tried the same to send to other email addresses and another email address I have of my own and no one gets them ,so I just use my message on my phone but would prefer sending pics that i have saved of my cats who are no longer with me that i can insert but can no longer!
