KL123 When you upload a file to a chat it actually uploads to your OneDrive and is shared with the user from there. Currently the limit for file upload to OneDrive is 15 GB but a rollout is ongoing to increase it to 100 GB.

Hi ParLinderoth ,

Thanks for responding. Do you know if there is a different limit on the mobile app?

Thanks,

Kate

KL123 Nothing that I am aware of but I guess it can be more sensitive to bandwidth drops if you are on 4G and move around for example.

  The 15 GB and 100 GB limit applies to SharePoint Online, not sure if Teams supports it also...

    jcgonzalezmartin Good point, could also be differences between app, browser and mobile. I haven't seen any information regarding max file size through Teams though so I have assumed that the SharePoint/OneDrive limits are the ones.
