1 Star for interface only
otherwise takes too long, does a terrible job and no developer updates. Don't buy.
Too Slow! No detailed adjustments!
I want my money back. There are many free web alternatives that are better and quicker than this.
Great app
I just put 250 huge JPGs from my photographer (about 4GB worth) into Squash and was able to remove about 2.2GB. I was amazed. I've been using Squash for a couple years now and it always works when I need it. One feature request I would have is to be able to batch resize and change dpi. It would be great to take a large 300dpi pic and not only Squash it, but change all the pics to a certain percentage of resolution size and to set the DPI. right now I do that individually in Preview but it is annoying. This app is anything but.
Perfect App
I didn't think it was possible for an app to be perfect, yet here we are. Solves a super annoying problem, does exactly what is says without any problems, and it's a delight to use.
No Mojave support?
Need a refund. Does not save files on Mojave.
Dead simple to use. Limited File I/O.
I can always go free with open source tools, but when you have a well-designed Mac app that just works fast and easy like this, I’m happy to pay for it. That said, I do hope the file type in/out options expand over time. TIFF/JPG/PNG doesn’t cover a lot of ground. And if there’s any FEATURE I’d say was missing, it would be the option to set a megabyte limit for a batch. Enter a value, and the compression would vary on each image to automatically limit file size to that value. Otherwise, nice work.
High Sierra and Mojave compatibility?
Is it just me or does this app not work with either High Sierra or Mojave? It looks and sounds like it's doing something but yields no results. No new saved files. No file size decrease. Does this on a MBP running High Sierra and also on an iMac running Mojave. Maybe it's me. Maybe I'm missing something. I've watched the "Getting Started" video on Realmac's website, but what I see there and what I experience are not the same. Mac App Store says compatible with High Sierra and above. Realmac's website says macOS 10.11 and above. App hasn't been updated in over one year so perhaps they've abandoned it.
