compress pictures bevor sending #53

You should compress pictures (like Androidapp) bevor sending because most receivers will use a mobilephone with slower connection then DSL.

what do mean? Compressing a jpeg image is pointless, it is already compressed.

I don't want do reduce the image quality either. First, by which parameter (percent/max. size)? And second, altering user files is bad habit.

Anyway, if the phone is connected by wifi you have cable speed. The desktop app can't predict that.

@webratte is expressing his concern because the Android app has a resize image feature which reduces the file size (editable through a preference of course). He thinks it could be useful to have the same setting in the desktop app.

@daniele-athome That's what I mean :-)

ah, ok. Didn't see that. So, an option to set the max. image size.
