MMS Support

Send and receive picture messages

A plain SMS has a length limit and no room for images. SMSEagle supports MMS, so you can send and receive photos, video, or audio alongside your text messages.

MMS Support: FAQ

Multimedia Messaging Service, an evolution of SMS that combines a longer block of text with images, photos, video, or audio in one message.

No extra software or third-party services are needed. MMS travels over the operator’s data network, so the SIM card must have MMS and mobile data enabled on its plan.

JPEG, PNG, and GIF images are the most widely supported by carriers. Most other file types work too, though deliverability isn’t guaranteed since it depends on the recipient’s carrier and handset.

Through the API, WebGUI Compose, Email to SMS, Email to SMS Poller, SMS to Email, and SMS Forward.

There is no limit on text length. Each MMS can carry one attachment of up to 300 KB.

MMS is available on SMSEagle devices with a modem and carrier plan that supports MMS.
