    I have an Iphone 13. How do I get the picture from my phone to a posting on V8? I'm not well versed in computer apps,but I'm willing to give it a try!

    When creating a new post (or reply) find the "Upload a File"on the lower right, and then chose the image on the phone...

    Simply click "upload a file". That gives you a choice, Photo Library, Take photo, or Choose file. If you choose photo library, it takes you to photos on your phone. Touch the photo to select it, then touch add at the top. Just did that now. FBD40096-4484-4FCA-9D70-70C63C79222E.jpeg

    For those of us that don't know computers, I think the only way the above instructions work is if your phone is synced to your computer. Am I correct?

    No, I can post a photo directly from my phone, but that photo has to be on my phone.

    Yes, and I can do the same thing from my i phone 11. Are you using Safari?

    I wish I knew, I am so very computer dumb. I don't know what I am using. I want to try to get one off my phone.

    Safari is the Apple browser. Google chrome, Firefox are other examples of browsers. Look on your i phone, the symbol for the Safari browser is,

    That is what I use to go on V8. The upload a file button will bring you to all the photos on your phone in your photo library. Try it.
