How do you send multiple PDF files in a single email instead of sending several emails with only one PDF?

I use my IPhone XR often for emails. I can't seem to figure out how to send more than one PDF at a time via email. I need to send a total of eight PDFs at one time. I could send several emails with just one PDF each but I feel this to be counter productive and tedious. Any recommendations?

iPhone XR, iOS 17

hi!


to attach multiple files to an email, you need to tap on the arrow that's located above your keyboard on the right! by pressing that, you get multiple new options presented. from there, tap on the files icon (the icon that looks like a sheet of paper with the corner folded!) and select all files that you need to attach.


if that still doesn't work, it could be that your PDF files are too big; there's a file size limit when sending emails which can vary depending on your email provider. to work around that, open the files app > hold down a PDF file > tap "Quick Actions" > tap "Optimize File Size" and lastly try again :) hope this helps!
