Field notes
The workflow sorts 4K videos by size, offers up to six versions for comparison, and sends selected copies back into Photos. The page says copies are checked for playback and metadata before import, with originals kept until the user moves them to Recently Deleted. It also discloses that Photos prevents apps from adding items to shared or smart albums or assigning People.
