File extension mms is associated with Multimedia Messaging Service, or MMS, a telecommunications standard for sending messages that include multimedia objects (images, audio, video, rich text).
MMS is an extension of the SMS standard, allowing longer message lengths and using WAP to display the content. Its most popular use is sending photographs from camera-equipped handsets, although it is also popular as a method of delivering ringtones as well.
The standard is developed by the Open Mobile Alliance (OMA), although during development it was part of the 3GPP and WAP groups.
Files with mms extension can be most often found as multimedia messages saved in special Multimedia Messaging Service message file format. An .mms file stores multimedia objects (images, audio, video, rich text) sent through mobile phones with MMS support.
