In short
- AirDrop: Apple to Apple, standing close.
- Android friends and people far away are left out.
- A Room works on any phone, anywhere.
Where AirDrop stops
AirDrop works between Apple devices that are near each other. Friends on Android can’t receive it, and once everyone is home, nobody is in range.
One link for every phone
Make a Room and drop the link in the group chat. iPhone or Android, everyone uploads from the browser in full quality.
Everyone takes what they want
Each person opens the same link and downloads the photos they want, or all of them at once. Nobody has to send anything one by one.
