Bluetooth is not QuickShare, stop conflating them. Bluetooth works. I just tried it. It just sends the entire file to the destination, filename intact with all EXIF, no gimmicks, tricks, or extra toggles. As it has always done for 20+ years.

I don't know how modern your Android phone is, but on all of mine sharing via Bluetooth strips away some of the EXIF.

When sharing via FileProvider from file managers like MiXplorer or Total Commander, the raw file is sent as is, and the GPS location stays intact.

However, I confirmed that the GPS location remains when sharing an image file that isn't stored in the MediaStore (for example, placed in the same directory as a .nomedia file). In this case, only the Share button is displayed at the bottom of the Photos app, and the shared URI is not `content://com.google.android.apps.photos.contentprovider/0/1/content://media/...` but like `content://com.google.android.apps.photos.contentprovider/-1/1/file:///data/...`. You can check the URI by sharing to Intent Intercept app on F-Droid.
