Running out of space? Your RAW photos and oversized JPEGs are likely the culprit. Trimage converts and compresses them into lean, high-quality JPEGs so you can reclaim gigabytes — without sending a single photo off your device. Two simple modes, one tap to start: CONVERT RAW → JPEG RAW and DNG files are huge. Trimage turns them into beautiful JPEGs that look the same to your eye but take up a fraction of the space. Perfect for iPhone ProRAW shooters and anyone importing from a camera. COMPRESS LARGE JPEGS Already have big JPEGs eating your storage? Trimage recompresses them at the quality you choose, so you keep the photo and lose the bulk. WHY YOU'LL LIKE IT • See your savings — watch exactly how many megabytes (and gigabytes) you reclaim. • Quality you control — a simple slider from balanced to maximum quality. • Keeps what matters — preserves dates, location, favorites, and optional HDR/wide color. • Your originals stay safe — Trimage never deletes anything automatically. Converted originals are gathered into an album so you can review and remove them in Photos whenever you're ready. • Batch friendly — convert a handful or your entire library. • Built for iPhone and iPad. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Everything happens on your device. Trimage does not collect, upload, or share your photos or any personal data — there are no accounts, no tracking, and no servers. The only thing that leaves is the storage you free up. HOW IT WORKS 1. Pick photos, or let Trimage scan your library for RAW files or large JPEGs. 2. Choose your quality. 3. Tap Convert and watch the space add up. 4. Review your originals in the album and delete them when you're happy. Reclaim your storage today — your future self (and your iCloud) will thank you.

True Color is a real photo editor, not another filter app. Under the hood it's the color math you know from desktop editors: layers, masks, Levels, Curves, Hue/Saturation, Color Balance, Channel Mixer and more, rebuilt for touch. QUICK WHEN YOU WANT IT • Adjust: exposure, contrast, color and tone, plus a one-tap auto that writes a real Levels layer you can open and inspect • Filters: one-tap looks with an intensity dial • Alchemy: blend styles on a free two-axis pad and save the mix as your own look • Crop, B&W, Portrait Blur, Colorize, Splash: the everyday tools, simple and fast DEEP WHEN YOU'RE READY • A full layer stack with 26 blend modes, opacity and groups • Masks: paint, subject, depth, gradient and luminosity, with the AI running on-device • Blend If: composite on tone, so an edit lands only where you meant it • Pipeline view: see exactly how any edit is built, layer by layer • Save any edit as a reusable Look, or import your own .cube and .3dl LUTs PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your photos never leave your iPhone. All editing and all AI runs on-device. No account, no upload. FREE AND PRO The editor is free: three layers on every photo, the everyday adjustments, the whole Filters rail and all 26 blend modes. True Color Pro takes the ceiling off, with unlimited layers, 17 more adjustment layers (Curves, Levels, Channel Mixer, Selective Color, Lab Color, Split Toning and more), all five kinds of mask, Blend If, Looks, LUT import, and saving from the one-tap tools.
