Understanding Video Thumbnails in SMS Messages
Follow these guidelines to manage video thumbnail previews in SMS messages:
Mobile Device Sending:
If the recipient has never responded: The video link will not display a thumbnail preview.
If the recipient has previously responded: Sending the video URL will automatically generate a clickable preview.
Web-Based SMS Tools:
Tools like Twilio or Google Voice: They do not automatically generate a video preview from the link.
Using Dubb:
For automatic previews: Dubb allows you to include a video preview directly.
For other tools: Some tools support adding a preview image or attachment manually.
