Make big files small — fast. Parad0x Compress reduces the size of your photos, videos, and PDFs so you can save storage, upload quicker, and share instantly. What you can compress • Photos: HEIC, AVIF, PNG, JPG (and more) • Videos: MOV, MP4 (and more) • Documents: PDF compression Why you’ll like Free version • One-tap compression (no settings PhD required) • Choose your balance: smaller size vs higher quality • Cleaner sharing: smaller attachments, faster sends • Fast share option - Works great for messaging, email, and cloud uploads Pro version • Batch processing (compress multiple files in one go) • Advanced output options (like AVIF where available) • No limits Note:  • Output results depend on the original file (some files are already optimised and won’t shrink much). • Compression results vary by file type, resolution, and device performance. Some formats (like AVIF) can take longer but deliver better savings. • RAW/DNG/TIFF support is best-effort. These formats can differ a lot between camera brands and apps (bit depth, embedded previews, tiled TIFFs, vendor metadata). On some devices, certain files may fail to decode or may require more memory than your phone can safely allocate. • If a RAW/DNG/TIFF file fails, try: re-opening the file and retrying, switching compression mode, or exporting/converting it to JPG/PNG/HEIC first.
