Update, 9/18/2025: Dev added THE photo processing feature I've been wanting. The ability to de-squeeze iPhone photos while keeping that super-brightness those photos have. He told me it's based on Apple's "Adaptive HDR" (8-bit JPEG/HEIC + Gain Map) standard.
Update, 7/7/2025: Dev added file format & file size to thumb gallery on my req--plus has been responsive to my emails. He cares about this app.
5/17/2025: Highly recommended. $10, no subscription--happy value. I crunch a LOT of images to manage phone storage. Hundreds/day. I rate Desqueeze Pro 98%.
It's very hard to find a batch resizer that's full-featured, reliable, and easy. I've tried many. (My former go-to, Batch Resizer 2, stopped being supported.)
You can batch crunch to just about any parameter you need. Many, many options.
Learning curve:
• for me I fired it up and set up my own presets in about 5 min. After that was done, it literally takes seconds to batch as much as I want.
• if you're new to crunching, it might take you a bit longer to understand interface/set up, but don't get frustrated! It's designed logically to accommodate all of its options/depth. You'll get it.
Great feature: option to keep original file name, but with " -dsqz " appended! Helps with serial file management.
If you need a batch cruncher, just get this. You'll have one less workflow thing to worry about.

Wishes: app tends to really heat up my iPhone 15 and 12, so Dev...any ideas? Also, I'd like the thumbnail page to show Favorite icons, file size & format under (or on) each thumb. [You can long press a thumb to get aspect ratio (helpful!) & format, to be fair, but right on the gallery would be cool.]

And of course, an option to delete originals--it's a hassle to hafta go to the Desqueeze Originals folder.
