Message Attachments

What it does

The message composer's attachment button opens a drawer with four options for attaching content to a chat message. Attachments appear as message bubbles in the thread and are also accessible in the Shared Media screen.

How to use it

1. In any chat, tap the paperclip (attachment) button (green background, left of the text input).
2. The attachment drawer opens. Tap an option:

Option	Icon	Description
Audio	headset-outline	Record or attach an audio file
Camera	camera-outline	Take a photo or video with the device camera
Gallery	image-outline	Pick a photo or video from the device gallery
Upload Document	attach-outline	Browse and upload a file from the device (PDF, Word, spreadsheet, etc.)

1. Select or capture your file. It is sent as a message in the chat.
2. Tap an attachment in the chat thread to view it or access actions (download, share, etc.).
3. All attachments shared in the chat are also viewable in the Shared Media screen, see Shared Media.

Tips & shortcuts

• Use Gallery for existing photos and Camera to take a fresh photo without leaving the chat.
• All files you send are also stored in Shared Media; a useful place to find files sent weeks ago without scrolling through the chat.
