Unlimited free storage usually means your photos get compressed to save costs. We choose to offer less free storage and a Full Quality mode for supported image formats. We believe your memories are worth more than compressed pixels.
For JPG, PNG, and static WebP uploaded with Full Quality, snappi stores a safe master without recompressing the main image payload. File size can change because private metadata is removed, and legacy quality settings may still use re-encoding.
We'll offer paid plans to expand your storage while keeping the same Full Quality option for supported image formats. Storage Saver and Balanced modes remain available when smaller files matter more.
