MMS. Share experiences and emotions.


Let your family and friends take part in your experiences and emotions – send them photo or video messages from your mobile phone using MMS.

Using MMS – Multimedia Message Service – you can send photos, videos, text and music from your mobile phone to mobile phone numbers and e-mail addresses. To do this, you need an MMS-capable mobile phone that is set up for MMS.
 

Photo MMS:

Simply take a picture using your mobile phone’s camera and send it as an MMS. You can include a text greeting as well as music.

Video MMS:

Capture special experiences using your mobile phone’s video camera, and send the video as an MMS – by itself or with text.

If you send an MMS to someone who does not have an MMS-enabled mobile phone, or if it is not possible to exchange MMS with their network operator, they will receive an SMS notifying you of this. With the information in the SMS, the recipient can view the MMS on the Internet as well as forward it by e-mail.

Set up your mobile phone for MMS

MMS-capable mobile phones are automatically configured for MMS. If MMS does not work on your mobile phone, it may not have been configured correctly. In this case, reload the configuration onto your mobile phone and configure your mobile for MMS.
