probably image size or memory first, especially if it only crashes when users upload

I will drop either"User complaining upload is not working plis help" or "Are you stupid ? can't even process an image correctly" depending on my mood.

Checking image size reduces beats mood-based debugging every time.

I’d first check image size, format, and memory usage during upload, then inspect crash logs to identify where the failure occurs

You are right. These are the best places to check first

First thing? I’d stop testing on my phone only!

Then use other devices to confirm. Then debug the problem from your end… yea?

first thing i'd check is image size. works fine with your test photos, breaks when users upload 20MB monsters. 😅

I just copy-paste what you wrote to opus 5.5 and say “investigate, fix, commit + push” Then I go have some drinks with friends

image file size first. phone photos are huge and older devices run out of memory.

Phone photos are often 5 to 12 MB, so the first thing to check is whether the upload handler loads the whole file into memory and runs out on low-end devices.

I would check my application.. Where is the problem. I will solve the problem according to logic

my first instinct is just to check if they are uploading huge files haha
