Share a video
You can share a video by sending it in an email or with a multimedia (MMS) message.
MMS messages have size limits, typically 3MB, or approximately 1 minute of high-
quality video or 2 minutes of low-quality video. See “Changing Camera settings” on
page 277. You can also share a video by uploading it to the YouTube web site.

In the menu that opens, touch the application to use to share the selected videos.
The application you selected opens with the video attached to a new message. If
you selected YouTube, you’re prompted to enter details about the video to upload.
For more information, see the section on that application.
Important If you are sharing one or more videos via Gmail, do not delete the originals before the
message is completely sent (that is, it has the Sent label, not the Outbox label), or the
attached videos will not be sent.
Touch the video to view the
playback controls for pausing,
resuming, and skipping
backward and forward.
