Share the original file using a service that preserves it, then check the received copy. Keep your own backup before deleting the photo from your device.

A simple plan

Keep the original

Do not delete the source file before checking the copy.

Choose how to send

Check the quality and size settings of your service.

Test a photo

Download it on another device and inspect it.

Save a backup

Keep another copy somewhere you control.

MethodWhat to check
Event albumUpload size limits and whether a download keeps the original
Shared cloud folderWho can open and download the file
Photo librarySharing settings and the recipient’s access
Messaging appWhether the app reduces image size or offers another way to send files

OwnPix accepts photos up to 30 MB each. After downloading, compare the image dimensions and file with the original when quality matters, particularly for large prints.

Test before sending the full collection

Pick one detailed photo and download it on another device. Check its dimensions and open it at full size. If the received file is smaller or looks different, review the sharing settings before sending the rest.

Keep your source files until you know the recipient can open the copies. For a wedding, check your photographer’s agreement before editing or sharing their images.

How OwnPix helps

OwnPix collects guest photos in one event album. Hosts can download the collection before the plan’s storage period ends.
