I get an error "something went wrong" when trying to upload to a file request on iOS

I’m currently receiving an error when upload load via a file request link. Works fine on my iPad but not on 2 different iPhones. Error says “something went wrong. Please try sending your files again”...

I’m having issues uploading artwork to my request files folder. It works fine uploading from laptops, but not mobile. (Tablet and phone). On mobile, it looks like it’s uploading (goes all the way to 100%), then this message comes up. “Something went wrong. Please try sending your files again.”
