Compress any photo to an EXACT file size β type 200 KB and get 200 KB, on the first try. Email limits, web forms, visa applications, listing portals, forum avatars β they all want a photo "under X KB". Image Compressor hits that number precisely instead of guessing with a quality slider, so you never upload, fail, and retry again. HOW IT WORKS β’ Pick photos from your library or the Files app. β’ Type your target β 50 KB to 4 MB, or tap a preset. β’ Tap Compress. A smart multi-pass search lands your photo just under the target at the best possible quality. β’ Compare before and after with a slider, then save or share. WHY IMAGE COMPRESSOR? β’ Exact-KB targeting β not a vague low / medium / high slider. β’ Before/after comparison β check every pixel before you send. β’ 100% on-device β your photos never leave your iPhone. No uploads, no servers, no account. β’ No ads. Ever. β’ Batch mode β up to 20 photos to one target in a single run (Premium). β’ Metadata removal β strip EXIF and GPS location before sharing (Premium). β’ JPEG or HEIC output (Premium). β’ Savings history β see how many megabytes you reclaimed this week. β’ Fully localized in 38 languages. FREE VS PREMIUM The free version includes 3 exact-size compressions per day with the full before/after preview. IMAGE COMPRESSOR PREMIUM Premium unlocks unlimited compressions, batch mode, metadata removal, and HEIC output. Premium is available as a weekly auto-renewable subscription with a 3-day free trial, or as a one-time Lifetime purchase. Subscriptions auto-renew until canceled.
