Ever send a photo and it looks like it was taken through a foggy window? That’s your settings, not your camera.
Apple compresses images by default to save data. But you can fix this. Go to Settings > Messages. Scroll down to “Low Quality Image Mode.” Toggle it OFF. Now your photos send in full, glorious 4K resolution. Your friends will think you bought a new phone. Nope, just a toggle.
Fun fact: If you leave that setting ON, you’re basically sending your vacation photos as potato quality. But hey, some people like the aesthetic. Low fi vibes.
