What File Types and Attachment Sizes Can Students Send in Learning Chat
Attempting to upload oversized video files or unsupported formats results in failed upload errors without knowing what went wrong.
Failed file uploads interrupt study sessions
When students try to attach 50 MB scan files and the upload silently fails, they waste time troubleshooting without understanding platform limits.
Adhere to optimized file specifications for seamless delivery
Ensure image attachments (PNG, JPG, WEBP) are clear and legible.
Keep PDF, DOCX, and PPTX document attachments under the 10 MB limit.
Record voice notes up to the generous 2-minute recording duration.
If sharing a larger file, compress the PDF or share it via cloud link.
Put it into practice
Example: Compressing a scanned lab report PDF
A student compresses an 18 MB scanned report to 6 MB, uploading it instantly to her teacher's chat without encountering file size limits.
Worth checking first
- The message interface displays a warning if an attachment exceeds 10 MB.
- Voice recordings automatically stop and save when reaching the 2-minute mark.
