Before (some years ago) I used Evernote often as travel diary. I took photos with Evernote and then wrote some comments to the note.
Photo size was about 0.6 MB . Photos were automatically copied to Google photos with location data.
Now with current version photo size is about 5.0 MB and photos are copied to Google photos without location data.
Photo size is problem because it makes Evernote even more slow in loading notes. And why leave that location off ?
In desktop I use better older version but in mobile it is not possible.
I think that if you want get photos with high quality you should use another application, and Evernote for snapshots.
