Since iOS14, I've had two issues, not sure if some of these are intentional but I fear they're both bugs?

1) If I click on a contact's name at the top of our conversation and look at "info", a selection of photos appears for easy access. However, they seem random. That is, there are many photos that are not included in this grid of photos. The only way to access them is to scroll up continuously through the conversation and find a white box asking to re-downlaod it. Why are pictures seemingly at random needing to be redownloaded?

2) Videos are now sending through imessage very blurry, as if compressed like good old SMS days.

1) possibly it’s offloading photos due to space?
2) there was talk in one of the main iOS 14 threads that it’s sending videos differently now. Use the search to find more info.
