Compress Images is an image compression tool designed specifically for macOS, integrated into the system in the form of a Finder Quick Action. Users do not need to open a standalone app; they simply right-click an image in Finder and select "Compress Image" under "Quick Actions" to complete compression. The entire process runs locally and offline, and images are not uploaded to any server, balancing privacy and convenience.
Main capabilities include: support for batch compression of any number of images, with no quantity limit; a compression rate of up to 90%, which can reduce files from several MB to several KB; the compression process does not lose resolution, and the official description calls it "invisible compression," making quality differences difficult to detect with the naked eye; support for automatically converting HEIC files to JPG, making it easier to be compatible with more scenarios.
How to use it is very simple: right-click an image on a Mac, then select "Quick Actions" and "Compress Image" in sequence. This tool requires macOS 12 or later.
Applicable scenarios include: Mac users who need to reduce image size for sending by email, uploading to web pages, or saving storage space, especially graphic designers and other people who need to process images in batches.
In terms of limitations: this tool only works on macOS 12 and above; it uses a one-time payment model, priced at $5.99, for permanent use. Support for other platforms has not yet been provided.
