I wouldn't know where to begin in determining the compression ratio of a photo. I guess the app produces better upload results, though. I will use it going forward if I take a picture of something I want to share.

How is it that everyone takes and upload such good photos?!?

I want to, too! I take pictures on my iPhone and upload them and the image quality always seems to get reduced on the uploaded image. They look decent on my phone and I think I have a pretty crisp photo. Then I upload it and it gets blurry. Am I missing a...

I downloaded both of your watch photo and compared the exif data. From that simple exercise it looks like the app does less compression than your browser... and when using the site to upload I understand that it's your device that manages the compression....
The "compression" comparison is very difficult to make

From my experience, compression depends on the pixel density and the contrast between adjacent pixels - thus a picture of blades of grass is more complex to compress than a picture of a blue sky. Here's my favorite pair of landscape photos which I use as ...

Upload test
