It might not be a properly-formed image file, i.e., the internal data is text and not binary, etc. This can happen when you "Save As..." something you think is an image but a server sends something else. If you're expecting to reference an image using the app here, you either need to: ~ provide the full path to the file on your mobile (in which case only you* will be able to see it) ~ put your file on a public image server so that people without your mobile device can also load the link * Technically, any mobile having a file named "Kids.jpg" in exactly the same place could load *a* file--but probably not yours--so just ignore this if it's confusing.

Everything looks fine but double check if the file name is spelled the correct way. Example: Kid.jpg, kids.jpg, Kids,png, etc. <img src="http://www.catster.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/A-fluffy-cat-looking-funny-surprised-or-concerned.jpg" alt="Cat face" >
