Why does my high quality Photos appear as low resolution on different devices

Viewing photos and sharing? File is low res and blurry looking? Inconsistent, but happens often? Where are the quality photos?

I don't understand what you showed us in the screenshot. Is this your original, or is this the "low resolution" image?


On my 12 pro, a typical 12 megapixel image (same resolution as the one you show) takes 3.4 megabytes. But your image shows the file is only 0.86 megabytes. This seems to be due to a very lossy compression. Are all of the pictures you take like this when you take them? Check the info! When does this change happen? It can happen in email transfers, for instance.


You said "Viewing photos and sharing." I don't think that we understand what you mean. How did you share? Are you using a Shared Album?


So, is this information about the file correct for the original image?

As we can't see your devices, nor read your mind, we need you to give us the information that will help you. Start with a full description of the issue, on what devices running which operating systems. Then describe how you get the different photos to the other devices, and add in anything you think might be relevant.
