Reduce the file size of any image in two clicks on Mac, right from the Finder. Offline. Private. Works on hundreds of images at once. Automatically converts HEIC to JPG—no more large iPhone photos.
Hey guys,
this is a quick side project app I initially created for my own use. I sent it to couple of friends who also use it so I decided to make it a full product.
Give it a go, it's free to try. After certain amount of uses, it will prompt you for a small one time fee of $3.99 for which I am giving you guys 50% off with the code: PRDCTHNT.
I am looking forward to any feedback regarding the product or the product page :)
Thanks!

@vojta_bohm Understood, there is one way, convert image > choose size. It doesn't give any control on anything else (typical apple).

Sounds like a handy little app, Vojta! Just tried it out, and it’s super easy to use. Love that you made it free to try. Congrats on launching this side project as a full product.
When uploading images to web forms, there are usually restrictions on format and maximum size. I used to be forced to use HEIC to JPG websites, upload original, download the transformed image and use it in the original form I was trying to submit.
This has become super easy now. I can just select a bunch of photos from my iPhone and convert them to JPG in bulk using the native Finder. The reduced size is a cherry on top for me!
Amazing app - simple and effective. It truly solves a real-world problem. Great job!
@daniel_bukac Thanks for the kind words Daniel! The case you talk about also bothered me.

Congratulations on the launch! Does your product include features beyond compression, such as format conversions? If not, are there plans to introduce this capability? Also, what inspired you to create this?
@kavyaaatripathi Hey there. Thanks for the questions. It automatically converts everything to JPG. That seemed like a good compromise so you could do it in two clicks, without selecting anything.
To be honest I didn't want to introduce too many features because I wanted it to be a very lightweight and simple utility you don't need to think about and just use it to compress images.
And the general case I had was to just select a bunch of images and lower their size. Usually also in HEIC format, hence the auto-conversion.
