Compress photos and PDFs to a specific KB size for upload forms, portals and sharing. Set an exact limit and the app hits it, every time. EXACT KB TARGETING Set a precise target like 20 KB, 50 KB or 100 KB. The app finds the best quality that fits your limit. Custom targets from 10 KB to 5000 KB are supported. RESIZE AND CROP Set the dimensions as well as the size. Type a width and height in pixels, millimetres, centimetres or inches, or pick a passport, ID photo, UPSC or visa preset. Crop to a square, portrait or landscape shape, or drag your own. The photo is resized first, then compressed to your KB limit. COMPRESS A PDF Bring a document under a size limit the same way, for the portals that ask for a scanned form or a certificate under a fixed size. CONVERT HEIC TO JPG iPhone photos are saved as HEIC. This app converts them to JPG and compresses to your target size in one step, ready to upload anywhere. OPENS MORE FILE TYPES TIFF, GIF and BMP files can be opened too, alongside JPG, PNG, HEIC, HEIF and WebP. COMPRESSION PRESETS Choose High Quality, Balanced or Smallest File. Adjust the image dimensions too, if you want to. MULTIPLE PHOTOS Compress up to 20 photos at once. Both exact KB and preset modes work with batch selection. SAVE AND SHARE Save compressed copies to your gallery, or send them straight from the share sheet. Batch save and batch share are both supported. PORTAL SIZE GUIDE A built-in guide to common upload limits for government portals, visa applications and exam forms, passport photos and more. Tap any entry to use that limit straight away. BEFORE AND AFTER Compare the original and the compressed copy side by side, and drag the divider across the photo to see exactly what changed before you save. FREE UP STORAGE Out of space? The app finds the largest photos in your library, shows you exactly which ones and what each would save, and compresses them. The originals move to Recently Deleted, so you have about 30 days to bring any of them back. Scanning is free, and the saving is measured on your own photos before you decide. YOUR SAVINGS See how much space you have saved since you started, and what you compressed to get there. IPHONE AND IPAD One purchase covers both, and every screen is laid out for the size it is on. PRIVACY All compression happens on your device. No account, no uploads to external servers. Your originals are never changed. REMOVE HIDDEN PHOTO DATA Photos carry location, camera and other hidden information. Turn it off and the compressed copy leaves it behind, so what you upload is the picture and nothing else. ONE-TIME PURCHASE Try one free export, then unlock with a single purchase. No subscription. Use it forever on the same Apple ID. Available in English and Arabic. Made for: government forms, visa applications, passport photos, school and exam applications (UPSC, SSC, JEE, NEET, CAT), ID uploads, HR portals, and any form with a file size limit. ## Pricing and in-app purchases Base price: Free. **One-time purchases** | Purchase | Price | Type | | --- | --- | --- | | One Time Payment | $4.99 | one-time | ## Version history (last 5 releases) ### 1.4.3 — 2026-08-28 Performance improvements and bug fixes. ### 1.4.2 — 2026-08-28 Set the dimensions, not just the size. Type a width and height in pixels, millimetres, centimetres or inches, or pick a passport, ID photo, UPSC or visa preset. The photo is resized first and then compressed to your KB limit, and if the limit needs a further reduction the result says what it produced. Crop to a square, portrait or landscape shape, or drag your own over the photo. TIFF, GIF and BMP files open now, alongside JPG, PNG, HEIC, HEIF and WebP. The size screen has been rebuilt around a much larger preview, so you can see the photo you are working on, and the options most people never touch are tucked away until you want them. Arabic now reads file sizes the right way round: a size such as 50 KB used to draw in the wrong order everywhere it appeared. ### 1.4.0 — 2026-08-28 Storage cleanup, made safe to interrupt. A run over thousands of photos takes a while, so it can now be paused and picked up later, and it keeps working with the screen awake. Every compressed copy is read back and checked before the original is moved to your trash. Before a run, the app says how much room it needs while it works and how much it gives back, and it can free space as it goes if you are short. When it finishes it shows the step that actually returns the space: emptying your trash. Two ways to scan. Quick finds your biggest photos in seconds. Thorough weighs every photo and video and shows what is using your space. The Arabic app is fully Arabic now. Around ninety messages, options and results that were still in English have been translated, and photo dimensions read the right way round. ### 1.2.0 — 2026-08-10 Some photos failed with "cannot fit under 50 KB" even when that size was perfectly achievable, because the app stopped reducing image dimensions too early. It now searches further, so the recommended 50 KB preset, the limit most upload forms ask for, succeeds on photos that previously failed. Also in this release: - A new app icon, easier to spot in search results and on your home screen - Arabic is now correctly listed as a supported language - Smaller internal fixes and stability improvements ### 1.0.7 — 2026-07-08 Full Arabic interface with in-app language toggle Premium redesign: gradient buttons, animated progress ring, smooth transitions Results animate with KB and savings counting up Drag to compare before and after compression Photo thumbnail visible while choosing compression settings Dynamic quality estimate as you pick a KB target Free export badge so you know what to expect before purchasing Open Gallery button after saving Simplified mode and settings screens ## More apps by Kiducate Ltd. - [Instant Passport & ID Photo](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/instant-passport-and-id-photo/id6761953412) - [Rasekh - Quran Hifz Tracker](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/rasekh-quran-hifz-tracker/id6766639262) All apps by Kiducate Ltd.: https://appshunter.io/developer/1665903357 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
