Re: Unable to upload to "request files folder" from mobile

I’m currently receiving an error when upload load via a file request link. Works fine on my iPad but not on 2 different iPhones. Error says “something went wrong. Please try sending your files again”

Did a little more mobile testing
IPhone X, iOS 12.3 - does not work.
IPhone 7, iOS 13.1 - does not work.
IPhone 8, iOS.12 - does not work.
Samsung Galaxy S9 works.

Could there be something specifically related to iOS / iphones?

I’m having issues uploading artwork to my request files folder. It works fine uploading from laptops, but not mobile. (Tablet and phone). On mobile, it looks like it’s uploading (goes all the way to 100%), then this message comes up. “Something went wrong. Please try sending your files again.”
