Compress any photo to an EXACT file size — type 200 KB and get 200 KB, on the first try. Email limits, web forms, visa applications, listing portals, forum avatars — 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 • Pick photos from your library or the Files app. • Type your target — 50 KB to 4 MB, or tap a preset. • Tap Compress. A smart multi-pass search lands your photo just under the target at the best possible quality. • Compare before and after with a slider, then save or share. WHY IMAGE COMPRESSOR? • Exact-KB targeting — not a vague low / medium / high slider. • Before/after comparison — check every pixel before you send. • 100% on-device — your photos never leave your iPhone. No uploads, no servers, no account. • No ads. Ever. • Batch mode — up to 20 photos to one target in a single run (Premium). • Metadata removal — strip EXIF and GPS location before sharing (Premium). • JPEG or HEIC output (Premium). • Savings history — see how many megabytes you reclaimed this week. • 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. Cancel anytime in your Apple ID Subscriptions settings at least 24 hours before the renewal date.

About

VisuCraft

Read full description

VisuCraft turns any photo into a step-by-step repair or build guide — no searching, no videos, no guesswork. Point your camera at anything — a leaking faucet, a rattling appliance, a flat-pack furniture kit, a car engine — and VisuCraft reads the scene and generates a personalized blueprint in seconds. No templates. No generic YouTube tutorials. Just the exact guide for what's actually in front of you. WHAT YOU GET • Annotated step-by-step guide — every step is overlaid directly on your captured photo with highlighted callouts, measurement markers, and numbered pins so you always know exactly where to look. • AI diagnosis first — describe your symptom ("leaking under the sink," "tripping the breaker") and VisuCraft leads with a diagnosis before the fix, so you're solving the right problem every time. • Full parts breakdown — an IKEA-style exploded view identifies every part and links it to a shopping search so you can source what you need without leaving the app. Pro adds a clean catalog-style illustration for every part. • Printable PDF manual — every guide generates a professional, shareable PDF you can print, text to a family member, or keep for next time. • Watch mode — each guide becomes a narrated cartoon walkthrough: a hand-drawn sketch for every step, read aloud while your hands stay on the work. No phone watching required. • Step Check-In — snap a checkpoint photo after each step and VisuCraft's AI looks at what you did and confirms you're ready to move on. Mis-tightened bolt? Wrong side panel? It will catch it. • AI Mechanic / Carpenter — a grounded chat assistant that knows your exact guide. Ask "what if my pipe is copper?", ask it to convert measurements to metric, ask it to simplify a step — it can even rewrite the guide in real time. • Save and track — every guide stays in your on-device library. Progress bars show how far you've gotten, and you can pick back up exactly where you left off.
