iPhone All photos data when airdropping.

[WinterWolf90]

Does the all photos data have to be enabled to send the original photo or video uncompressed? My understanding is that if I edit something and then send it using airdrop using all photo data, they get my original plus the edits.

If I take a picture with no edits and air drop it, or air drop a video, on the receiving end of things is the photo/video the same if all photos data isn't selected as far as quality.

Stock camera app exports photos/video to photos app using lossy compression from the start (HEIC, h264, HEVC, jpg).

AirDrop sends the original file with the except of transcoding for device compatibility.

So if you have an iPhone X and use HEVC compression to record a video and than you share that video via AirDrop with me (iPhone 6s) your iPhone will transcode h265 to h264 in a m4v container and sent it to me.

Quality is about the same although there are inherent difference due to the transcode. Results are negligible though.

With similar quality between the use of 2 the cost of this transcode produces a photo/video that uses less
