How to Email Photos From an Android Device

Instead of sending a photo through an app and degrading its quality, you can email it from your Android phone and ensure it stays sharp and clear. Here’s what you need to do:

1. Open the Photo Gallery on your device and locate the picture you want to send.
   
2. Select the small “Share” button in the lower left of the screen to view your digital accounts.
   
3. Select your email account from the list of options.
   
4. The new screen will display photos stored on your device.
5. Tap “Next” to move on.
6. Enter the recipient’s email address in the email window.
   
7. Hit “Send” in the top right of the window.
   

You can also send multiple photos from your Gallery. The process is relatively quick and easy.

1. Open your smartphone’s Photo Gallery and tap one photo you wish to send.
   
2. Click on the “Share” button in the lower right to see the digital accounts associated with your device.
   
3. Tap your email account, and the photos saved on your phone will appear in a new window.
   
4. Go through the pictures and select the ones you want to attach to the email.
5. When you’re ready to move on, press the “Next” button.
6. Type the recipient’s email address in the appropriate field.
   
7. Tap “Send.”
   

If you’re struggling to locate specific photos, you may not have taken them with your phone’s camera, so that’s why they’re not in your Gallery. Your phone has probably stored downloaded photos and files received through Bluetooth in the DCIM folder.
