## Review summary

Users appreciate that the app is easy to use and supports photo extension conversion and compression. However, many report persistent issues with permission requests: the app repeatedly asks for full file access yet fails to function properly even after granting permission. Displayed EXIF data is incomplete, with missing shutter count and date info. Additionally, users highlight privacy concerns due to contradictory data collection statements, leading to distrust and app unusability.
