Can tasker text photos via MMS?

[John Charlton]

I need to automate texting photos.

I did a Google search looking for an answer to whether or not Tasker could send MMS photos but couldn't easily find an answer so I'm asking before I buy.

And no... email or any other data method is no good.  The phone will have unlimited texting plan and NO DATA.

Android 8, 9, 10 devices

Thanks in advance

Well, I searched the Tasker instructions and see it can compose MMS but not send it. This doesn't make much sense to me, but whatever. I've seen other threads with tasker users trying to send MMS by using intents of other MMS enabled apps and by trying to push buttons in other MMS enabled apps with no success.

Why doesn't Tasker simply send MMS inherently the same way a messaging app does it? It's a no-brainer. Tasker appears to have MMS permissions while many other useful apps that would take motion detected photos and text them to another phone, etc, have been banned from the Play Store but Tasker doesn't even appear to take advantage of what it has?

Anyway, I see the app "Automate" by LlamaLab says it sends MMS, so I guess that's where my $ will go.

Later, Gator

Hi. Thanks for the input!

The only reason that Tasker can't send MMS is because neither the previous developer nor myself got around to implementing it :)

I plan on adding that feature eventually though!

Thank you for your contact.

I am using Samsung S6 with Android 6.0.1 along with Tasker and Join, in this configuration you can send MMS from the Join app to Chrome.

I'm interested in creating a task with Tasker to send MMS based on Join
Unfortunately, despite many attempts, I can't create a task in Tasker that will do this.
Also in Join in Action there is no such function.
This can probably be done with a Custom Action
Can you help me write a command to send MMS

Thank you in advance
