Why Photos Get Compressed

  • By default, iOS will downscale and recompress JPEG or HEIC files when sharing via Messages, Mail, or some third-party apps to save bandwidth and storage.
  • A 12 MP HEIC image (≈5 MB) can get reduced to a low-res JPEG (≈2 MP, 500 KB), losing detail and color fidelity.

2.

AirDrop Advantages

  • Peer-to-Peer: Uses Bluetooth and Wi-Fi Direct—no server intermediaries, for fast and stable transfers.
  • Original File Transfer: Sends the exact HEIC/JPEG/RAW file bit-for-bit, without recompression.

Step-by-Step Guide

  1. Open Settings
  2. Go to Photos
    • Scroll to the bottom
    • Enable “Preserve Originals”
  3. Check AirDrop Settings
    • Open Control Center → Long-press network pane → Set AirDrop to Everyone or Contacts Only
  4. Select & Share
    • In Photos app, pick the images → Tap the Share icon → Choose your recipient’s AirDrop name
  5. Recipient Accepts
    • Tap Accept → The original HEIC/JPEG/RAW is saved directly to their Photos library

How It Works

  • Preserve Originals turns off iOS’s automatic downscaling.
  • AirDrop uses local P2P transfer of the raw file stream—no encoding or quality loss.

5.

Things to Keep in Mind

  • iOS Version: iOS 13+ for full HEIC/RAW support.
  • Range: Keep devices within ~10 m with Bluetooth & Wi-Fi on.
  • Speed: Large files take ~1–5 s each, depending on size and interference.
  • Privacy: After sharing, reset AirDrop to Contacts Only or Off to avoid unsolicited files.
