Hey Party People!

What free apps do you recommend to quickly Resize photos and image files? (Android, iOS, Windows)

No one wants the HUGE raw pics in HX Albums, amirite?

Hopefully there are a few, free, easy tools to quickly shrink a bunch of image files at the same time. Suggestions???

In Windows and ChromeOS you can also just open a photo in your browser or default editor, make the window the size you want and do a screen capture/snip.(they allow you to crop and capture just what you want too). It will usually knock the file size way down and is a built-in - easy peezy. I'm not familiar with the Mac app but I'm sure its the same.

oh, didn't catch the multi-file ask, the capture only works on single files, but some of y'all could really use it. LoL

Thanks Gang!

From a tip, I am trying and living Fotosizer so far....

I just click & drag 50 photo files and BOOM! they're resized on my PC.

Huge time saver.

Great privacy point Alice


I've used metadata2go.com to scan the EXIF of my files but am not 100% sure it's not scrubbing for China lol

And by the way ... this rabbit loves a particular one of your coubs!

You can also use https://justxfans.com/photo-compressor/
It is free and does batch.

I also have a watermark script available. I was commissioned to create the apps and I am offering them free for the community.

I am currently in the process of getting some more scripts up to help the community.

I also have a booking script made exclusively for HX, but that is more for providers and managers.
