Native Messenger 1MB text limitations

I like using the native Samsung messaging app on my Galaxy S8 but I always get a notice, when sending gifs and such, that the max size is 1MB. Is there a fix for this? Do I have a setting wrong? ...

    Thanks for giving those steps that Marissa recommended a shot. From doing some digging, at this time, there is no way to have the native messaging app auto-compress files before sending. The best recommendation would be to utilize a 3rd party app such as the one you mentioned above.

Basically,😀 I can only dismiss the notification. There is not an advanced messaging setting but I can adjust the multimedia limit to either "Automatically accept all" or "Automatically accept files less than 9765 MB in size"

I have "all" selected.

Also setting for image size is set to "best available"
