My wife has an iPhone. I have a Samsung S23. Why do videos she texts me look like super low res shit?? Can iPhones not text videos?

Edit: NOTE, I am the receiver of the texts.
So many people asking me to have my wife do something different on her end.
Beloved, she is on iPhone because she doesn't want to do anything "weird." She is texting from her phone number using her texting app. That's what's going to happen.
Now, why can't I get iMessage on my android phone? If it's just a messenger app why not make it available for Android?
I'd use it.

Why are you still using sms in 2024?....
I'm not OP but I might as well be. My family has a group chat that exists almost exclusively to send pics/videos of the kids to each other. It's a mixed group of android/iOS, so the videos come through with 12 pixels. I have begged and pleaded for every key to switch to telegram, GroupMe, Gchat, Facebook... ANYTHING!!
But they're all on iPhone because they specifically don't want to be tweaking or customizing anything in their phones.
I fixed this, tell the grandmother, I'll only send the pictures etc via signal.
Set it up for her, put it on the home screen.
The grandmother (my Mom) is probably the 2nd most tech-savy person in the chat. She has dug in on this on my sister's side. It's not a huge deal. I've accepted that I just need to wait till the defaults change. Any video I really care about I make her send straight to my wife.
Also, I did set my mom with an account on my immich server, but last time I had her phone iOS wasn't playing nice with the automatic backup. I think maybe I'll take another swing at this.
Tell them about the app store
There's an app for that
