Image Shrinker is a free, open-source macOS application designed to reduce image file sizes through a simple drag-and-drop workflow. It uses established image optimization libraries to compress graphics without requiring manual command-line operations. The software supports PNG, JPEG, SVG, and GIF optimization through specialized processing engines. Users can drop image files into the application window to begin compression immediately. Optimized files are automatically renamed and saved alongside the originals or in a predefined folder. Original images remain untouched, allowing users to retain their uncompressed versions. Built with Electron, Image Shrinker provides a lightweight interface for preparing smaller graphics. It is particularly useful for designers and developers optimizing images for websites and digital projects.
