Compressions compressions compression!

Per what I read online snapchat has a 1gb video size limit and 5mb image size limit when it came to media upload limits but what I've noticed on my device is everything, absolutely everything I try to upload gets compressed. Doesnt matter if its a 15kb image or a 2mb image. Doesnt matter if its a 25mb video or a 200mb video. Whether I send the media as a snap or "posted from gallery" onto my story. On my phone's story board it looks great but when I check it out from other accounts on other devices there's a clear compression and loss of quality to the media and I don't know how to fix it. I just want to know if this happens to anyone else and if so is there a way to fix it. I use fast Internet and WiFi so I'm not limited by slow Internet or cellular data.

I'll look into this, I'm quite familiar with Snapchats upload process by now so I'll see if I can find the compression code and skip it/reduce it.

Thanks a lot. It doesn't even make sense. Not everything needs to be compressed so aggressively.

You can use the 'Force Source Encoding' option to disable Snapchat compression now.
