Thanks for looking into this.

These are the screenshots I have from users (I just now requested their user agents):

This one is on iOS 26:

And this one is apparently an older iPhone 8:

I wonder if it has anything to do with the specific image upload settings?

_ **EDIT:** _ You probably noticed my very small image upload limits. I’ve been instructing my users to test with a tiny ~75KB image and there have still been issues with that. But then another user just reported success by resizing an image. His user agent is:

> `Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; CPU iPhone OS 26_5_2 like Mac OS X) AppleWebKit/605.1.15 (KHTML, like Gecko) CriOS/150.0.7871.113 Mobile/15E148 Safari/604.1`

Probably unrelated to this, this user that had success initially had received the same error that others have been having, which looks like just an unspecific general error, but in his case at least it was actually because of the size:
