Why 2MB Uploads Fail

  • Oversized files: Modern mobile cameras take files between 4MB to 12MB.
  • Format Incompatibility: HEIC formats from Apple devices are generally rejected.
  • Slow Uploads: Large files fail to upload on slower server connections.

  • Buffer Target: Compresses to ~1.9MB to guarantee the file stays under 2048KB.
