## Description

Image Shrink—Batch resize offers a simple and efficient way to reduce image file sizes with just one tap. Perfect for saving mobile data and sending images to devices with small inboxes, it supports batch processing for multiple photos at once. Users can customize the resize dimensions and choose to either remove or preserve Exif and GPS metadata to control privacy.

The extension keeps all original images intact by saving resized versions separately on the SD card. Seamless integration with other apps allows users to fine-tune their image processing workflow, making Image Shrink both versatile and privacy-conscious for everyday photo management needs.

## Review summary

Users appreciate Image Shrink for its simplicity, speed, and reliable batch resizing capabilities without ads or heavy permissions. However, multiple users report common issues such as rotated portrait images after resizing, especially on newer phones and with HEIC format. The app lacks on-demand save folder selection and file size targeting, limiting its flexibility. Some find that resized images are renamed disrupting original order. Compatibility problems on recent devices and OS versions have been noted, causing errors and hangs. Overall, it's valued for core functionality but has room for modernization and bug fixes.

### Pros

- Simple and easy to use interface that performs batch image resizing efficiently.
- Minimal permissions required, enhancing user privacy and security.
- High functionality with options like multiselect and setting image quality and resolution.
- Reliable and fast image shrinking that works as intended for years for many users.
- Free version is fully functional and ad-free, with a valuable paid version for additional features.

### Cons

- Orientation issues with portrait photos, especially with .heic format or newer Samsung phones, causing images to rotate incorrectly.
- Lack of ability to choose the save location on demand; only a default output folder can be set, causing inconvenience.
- No option to set an exact output file size limit (e.g., 250kb), which is important for specific use cases.
- App has compatibility and stability issues on newer devices/OS versions (Samsung S23, Huawei P30 Pro, Android 13), including errors and hangs.
- Renaming of resized images changes file names and disrupts original file order, which some users find problematic.
