You can send a photo as a normal snap by downloading some third-party apps like LMK. However, this method takes longer to process and send pics.

Step 3: Either hit the magnifying glass icon from the top left corner or bottom right corner (this one is labeled Explore). Step 4: Search for the lenses that let you capture a snap of a saved photo on your camera roll. I personally love Pick From Photos by IBRA. You can search for it. It does a magnificent job. Step 5: Once you find the desired lens, tap on it. Step 6: Now, you can navigate to the desired photo and click the lens icon, which will work as a camera shutter.
