Why can I Airdrop a large file, but wouldn’t be able to send that same file by text message or email?
In: Technology
Airdrop is a direct file transfer between two devices over WiFi or bluetooth. If you try to send the same file via email or text message, the file will have to be sent out to a server and then to the recipient. This has additional bandwidth and storage costs that will add up quickly across large numbers of users for whoever owns the email/text server.
