Same happens to me. Note9..
Test image here.
For me personally when I want to upload an image I need to press picture icon, then upload. Then from there looking through my images I can't just select the one I want as that will not actually do anything. I have to tap and hold on the desired picture. That then brings up a larger version with an "add" button underneath.
Tapping add will bring me back to the previous screen and then I need to wait a minute for the image URL to be filled into the box once it has been uploaded. There is no indication it is being uploaded. Sometimes I'll wait for a couple of minutes and nothing will happen so I go through the previous steps again.
Then once the URL is filled on my reply, previewing the post will often not display the image to me for another up to 5 minutes. There is just blank space and no indication there should be an image loading within the preview.
I'm not sure if any of this makes any difference to you but I have noticed picture posting is a little funky and some of my experience may help you get more results.
Thanks for your reply! So I'm not the only one then. It would be very helpful if connect would show some indication that an image is being uploaded, I think having to wait 5 minutes and see if it did anything is a bit counterintuitive.
That's cool, I figured this out through trial and error and it has been this way as long as I can remember. It never really bothered me that much but I'm also not posting images that often so it hasn't become a regular bottleneck for me. However some indication something is happening might be nice.
