Like most email providers, Gmail limits the size of messages and file attachments you can send and receive. Learn more about Gmail's attachment limits and how to get around them using both the web version of Gmail and the mobile apps for iOS and Android.
Gmail Attachment Size Limit: How to Send Large Files Via Email (4 Easy Ways)
Gmail processes messages up to 25 MB in size. This limit is applied to the sum of the message text and the encrypted attachment. Encryption makes the file size slightly larger, so if you have a file that is exactly 25 MB, it will not be forwarded.
Sending messages larger than 25 MB from Gmail will result in an error. Messages sent to your Gmail account that exceed the limit will be bounced back to the sender.
You can attach any file type, but the file size limit rules out most video and audio formats, as well as large PDF documents with hundreds of images. Still, there are options for sending large files through Gmail.
