  I am trying to upload a sequence of screenshots from my phone, but it is allowing me to do only one at a time, so it’s very difficult to make sure I get them all in order when I have to drill down every time. If I click multiple images, only the image I selected most recently will be selected. I don’t even know if they will display at a legible size. I have tried adjusting images previously, and I know it isn’t WYSIWYG.

  WP.com: Yes
  Correct account: Yes

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi there:

  Can you let us know if you’re using the WordPress mobile app or are you logged into WordPress.com via a mobile browser? Once we have that information, we’ll be better able to advise.

  Thanks!

  Thanks for clarifying. Out of curiosity, you are trying to upload directly to a page or blog post as you are writing/creating it?

  Typically the only way to upload a group of images from within the editor is to use a gallery block. The image block would only allow you to pick a single image.

  If you have a group of images you want to upload (but display individually on your site) you may wish to try uploading your images in bulk, directly to the media library: https://wordpress.com/media/scottandrewhutchins.wordpress.com

  This will pre-fill the media library with your images, and when you are drafting your page/post, you can specify to pull those images from the media library when you are adding your image blocks.

  Hope that helps. Please let us know if you have any more questions.
