App Profile: Photo Resizer: resize image

Pixel Squirrel

Rating: 5/5

This does just what it says it will do and makes it easy to reduce the size of an image by removing the density of pixels it contains. The size reduction inherently decreases the overall quality of the image and sometimes this is noticeable and sometimes not, but the application does its job well and is not bloated with extras you may not need. This app is excellent for submitting photos of medical cards, driver licenses, etc., where the image cannot be uploaded to a website unless it is really small in file size. Some websites only accept photos that are less than 200KB, for example, which is tiny compared to the multi-megabyte images modern smartphone cameras typically take. There is nothing negative to say about this app. It is a simple, invaluable tool when you are at a doctor’s office, airport, or at a pharmacy and you quickly need a small version of a photo to submit with no hassles.

After wasting time w/Apple shortcuts (takes forever to create a shortcut so where's the time saver in that?). All I want is a simple photo resize to submit multiples to clients. Not looking for a scrapbook/folder/newsletter format, etc. This app is the simplest one I have seen and I tried 4 others that require taking a class just too figure out the method or worse..... once u figure it out, a pop-up appears asking for more $! Instead of apps these others should be called time wasters. Get this app and u won't regret it at all. Many thanks to the developer for creating something simple and fast!!

Straightforward image resizer. Intuitive and user friendly. No learning curve. I tried several popular apps that gave me no clue how to use them. Their interfaces were cryptic. Couldn’t get any of them to resize a photo. I didn’t want to do anything other than to reduce the photo size. Going through a learning process to do this simple task seemed like a big time waster. And none of those apps gave a clue where to access any instructions on how to use them (more browser search goose chases): only to find out that the app wasn’t a good fit anyway?
