I just bought the Lightning to SD Card Reader for those times I want to transfer some quick snaps on the fly to my iPhone. And also because Sony's Imaging Mobile app is slow hot garbage.

The problem is: I shoot in RAW+JPEG, but I only want to transfer the JPEG. Is there any setting/toggle or something I can do for this in the Photos app? It seems to import both RAW+JPEG which take up more iCloud space than I want it to (I keep RAWs on a separate external drive).

I can manually select only the JPEGs if I go in the Files app and do it from the main file directory and sort by type, but it's a clunkier process and doesn't show any transferring progress bars/icons. I'd rather just do it straight from Photos.
