Love that I ditched my iPhone for the Pixel 3 XL except for iMessage

iMessage

My wife still has her iPhone and when she sends me pics or videos it looks like crap. Only thing I miss. Other then that I love the phone!

Yep, iPhone to Pixel 3 here too and losing iMessage is probably my biggest lament as well.

Crazy how bad the quality of photos/videos has dropped

Could you not use something like WhatsApp on both of your phones instead of sms?

Exact same issue I had when I switched from iPhone to Android. There is no work around if the iPhone person is unwilling to learn something new. To them the ONLY text app is iMessage.

Have you tried Google photos? At least there's the sharing option there as a work around..

Have her try and change the setting in this pic . Everyone in my family has IPhones but me and the pics they send me suck . The Pics they send are always small and the Video quality is horrid. And I know the Iphone is better that what they send me .

 

[yungskeeme88]

I do. Not sure about her. Was thinking of making a shared album we could send videos to

It's amazing what Apple will do to keep people on the plantation. I've heard that Apple security people are former East German border guards.
