True. But I mean these are photos (from strangers that you aren’t even willing to exchange phone numbers with?). It is a really non-essential feature anyway, so most likely everybody who doesn’t have an Apple device skips it.

If it's videos sending over local wifi is the best option, even with people you know.

The real choice though is between (a) buying an apple gizmo and not having to set up local networks; and (b) buying a non-apple gizmo and having to do that.

...and guilt tripping people you meet on holiday for their phone choice because it's inconvenient for you.
