Works Well - Easy, No Frills

I wanted to reduce the file size of certain images to make them easier to share, but without degrading them excessively. This app made that one act quite easy, which is all I wanted. You have the ability to preview different values for image size and quality so you can achieve mild or major reductions if you want to.

Inconvenient! Horrible! Not iPhone Friendly!

This application only resizes images that are jpeg formatted. Any option selected within the application one is prompted immediately to purchase the full version at $4.99. This is rude, and abrupt to the user's experience. One is only to use the most recent 50 pictures in one's photo library. The application looks at the dates to verify the recent 50 pictures validity. One can deviate from this inconvenience by taking a screenshot of the picture in question. I was not able to find any settings to edit my picture format on my iPhone 7 Plus. Thus, making the application appear, at the least, not iPhone 7 Plus friendly. I am not aware if changing the photo format is possible on the iPhone 7 Plus. It is horrible, that the application is not equipped with the ability to change the photo format. It's is an inconvenience, and possibly a feature they must only offer in the full version. It's in short a consumerist ploy to take people's money.

I downloaded the app on iOS 10 and it didn't work. I created a new album but it was named U instead of the name I chose. I selected the 7 most recent screen shots to compress but when the app finished working the folder was still empty. Sure showed me a lot of ads though.Added: The developer sent me a nice note pointing out that buried at the bottom of the description it mentions that this tool is only designed to work on jpeg photos and not PNG, which is the format the iPhone takes screen shots in. He suggested that I try compressing photos. Well, I downloaded this app specifically to compress screen shots; if I want to manipulate photos in more detail I upload them to my Mac. I simply have no use for this app as it was designed, and had already deleted it from my device. Still, I upgraded my rating from one star to two. Still no explanation for the album naming bug, after all.

Developer Response
The description of the app says that it can not compress screen shots. The app has been built to compress regular photos only that you have taken with your original iOS camera app. Please try that and you will see that it's working. Thank you so much!

Fantastic Quality

Amazing quality for the small file sizes it produces. I’ve tried dozens of these compression apps and this does the best. Only suggestion would be to add the ability to have an Apple Shortcut so can compress photos within the camera roll with one tap to a preset size/quality. I’d definitely pay for this feature.
