Why can't I upload a photo?

There are a couple of reasons why you might receive an error when attempting to upload a photo to Meetup:

  • Verify your photo's size. Whether it’s for your profile, a group, or an event, photos must be smaller than 10 MB.
  • Verify your photo's format. Pictures uploaded to Meetup must be in JPG or PNG format.
  • Avoid uploading text on your images. If you're still receiving an error, try uploading a photo without any visible text.
  • Change platform. If the issue occurs on your mobile app, try the same procedure on the desktop website and vice-versa.
  • Uninstall and re-install the app. If the issue exclusively occurs on the app, try uninstalling and re-installing it again on your device. You can follow Apple's or Google's guidelines on how to do it, depending on your device.
  • Ensure you group's photo album hasn't reached the limit of photos you can upload. If you’re trying to upload a photo to a group's photo album, keep in mind that every album has a limit of 500 photos. But, there’s no limit to the number of albums a group can have. If the current one has hit its limit, just start a new one.
