Turn a pile of photos into exactly the files you need — without a single byte leaving your phone. BatchPixel is a fast, no-nonsense bulk image converter that does everything on your device. Pick dozens of images, choose an output format, and convert them all at once. Compress to shrink file size, resize to fit, strip EXIF and location metadata, or combine everything into one PDF. There's no server, no sign-in, no ads, and no tracking — and it works fully offline. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Batch convert many images in one pass • Change format (HEIC, PNG, JPG, WebP and more) • Compress with a 0–100% quality slider to cut file size • Resize by longest edge or by percentage (never upscales) • Strip EXIF, location, and camera metadata automatically • Export to PDF — one PDF per image, or merge many images into a single multi-page PDF • Save to Photos, save to Files, or send through the share sheet PRIVACY BY DESIGN • 100% on-device — your image bytes never leave your phone • No uploads, no cloud, no server in the conversion path • No accounts, no sign-in, no ads, no trackers, no analytics on your images • Picking images needs no photo-library permission (uses the system picker) • Metadata is stripped on every conversion — location and camera data don't travel with your files • Works completely offline SUPPORTED FORMATS Output on iPhone & iPad: JPG, PNG, WebP, HEIC, HEIF, AVIF, TIFF, BMP, GIF, and PDF. (HEIC, HEIF, and AVIF output need iOS 16 or later.) Input: BatchPixel reads whatever your device can decode — on iPhone & iPad that includes HEIC, HEIF, JPG, PNG, GIF, BMP, TIFF, WebP, AVIF, and even camera RAW. Animated GIFs are converted using their first frame. BUILT FOR REAL TASKS • Offload iPhone HEIC photos to universal JPG or PNG before sharing them with someone on another device • Prep web assets — batch-resize and compress to WebP or JPG so pages • Scan to PDF — merge a stack of receipts, notes, or documents into one tidy multi-page PDF • Clean metadata — remove GPS location and camera info before posting No watermarks. No file-size caps behind a paywall. No catch. Just a clean, private tool that converts your images and gets out of your way.
