Sharing Photos or Videos from Phone
If using an EOI phone, Andriod, Google Pixel or otherwise. The easiest way to share a photo or video with someone within the company directly from your phone can be done using the Google Photos app.
Share in a conversation
You can share directly to anyone with an EOI Google Account if they're in your contacts or by searching their email address. For everyone else, you can create a link to share.
If your contact’s phone number isn’t associated with their Google Account, you can help them find and connect with you. If your contact doesn’t have a Google Account, you can send them a link or share using another app instead.
