## What is Shrink?

Every upload form has a limit. Shrink is how you meet it.

  Most compressors hand you a quality slider and make you guess, export, check the file size, and try again. Shrink works the other way
  round: you name the maximum file size, and it does whatever it takes to land under it.

  HOW IT WORKS

  Pick your photos. Choose 200 KB, 500 KB, 1 MB, 2 MB, or type any size you need. Tap Compress. Shrink balances quality and dimensions to
  get as close to your limit as it can without going over, and shows you the before and after sizes so you can see exactly what you got.

  BUILT FOR REAL UPLOAD LIMITS

  • Government, visa and tax forms
  • Job applications and university portals
  • Insurance claims and medical uploads
  • Marketplace and classified listings
  • Email attachments that keep bouncing

  FEATURES

  • Set an exact maximum size, not a vague quality percentage
  • Presets for 200 KB, 500 KB, 1 MB and 2 MB, plus any custom size
  • Compress up to 20 photos in one batch
  • Before and after sizes shown for every result
  • Start straight from the Photos share sheet, without opening the app
  • Save to a dedicated Shrink album, or share anywhere
  • Photos already under your target are left untouched, so nothing is degraded for no reason
  • Accepts JPEG, HEIC and PNG; compressed results are saved as JPEG

  PRIVATE BY DESIGN

  Every photo is compressed on your iPhone. Your images are never uploaded, and Shrink has no account to create. Turn on Airplane Mode and
  compression still works exactly the same.

  PRICING

  Your first three exports are free, so you can confirm it does what you need before paying. One purchase then unlocks unlimited
  compression, forever. No subscription, no credits, no ads.
