Both parties need to install the app but will work on any device

Lmao u serious? The solution is to have everyone I know install an app I've never even heard of? How about the ****ing phone just works as it's supposed to......

Instead of messing with sending videos as texting attachments, if your video files are also stored in an online file storage service like Dropbox, Google Drive, SpiderOak, MS OneDrive, etc. you can just get a shareable link send them that URL instead. There's no transfer issues between platforms, services, or carriers, file size issues are a lot less restrictive, and no need to install anything you don't already use (on your part or the recipient). They just download on their end and view the file.
There are also file sharing sites like Firefox Send, where you can just upload a file (up to 1GB file size) and send them the resulting URL. It's a Mozilla service that can be used by any browser.
