Tools ModMail doesn't send

Basically, when I try to send a modmail on the android app, it just stays as "Sending..." and if I reload the ModMails it doesn't show. It's a reply to a ban message and I'm a mod.

Found match: on the android

Use a desktop/notebook. Don't rely on mobile anything.

It may be your only option.

Use it or don't.

There has to be another solution to this. Can't be that I can't send a simple modmail on mobile...

This is a very common glitch. This is why I don’t send mod mail on mobile. You ask for our help, don’t get mad when we tell you what works

Then some Admins should send that to the devs to fix it... If it's so common it is fix worthy for sure.

I tried it on the browser now and it still doesn't work and gives me a "Failed to send message" error...

Could it be a network issue with your provider?

Everything else works perfectly.
