We often identify widespread issues quickly and push a fix through an app update. If you're not using the current version of the app, go grab the latest build in your device's app store.

Update your operating system

Flickr is designed to work best on the current version of your mobile device’s operating system. If you're running an old version of the OS, Flickr may not function properly.

Use a stable connection

A stable internet connection is necessary to upload large files. An unstable or slow internet connection will cause the upload to boot out or fail. Avoid switching back & forth from different connections to ensure smooth uploading.
