TinyPNG.App

tinyPNG.App is a lightweight utility that provides a convenient and fast way to reduce the sizes of images you plan to use for various online and offline projects.

The setup is quick, uneventful and does not require any special attention from your part. Following the installation, the app prompts you to insert an API key which can be easily obtained by clicking on the link provided. On a side note, you need to enter your name and email address to receive a link to your dashboard where you can keep track of the number of pictures you processed. With the Freemium version, you can resize up to 500 images per month.

Functionality-wise, the application is as simple to use as it looks, meaning that all you need to do is simply drag and drop the image you want and the app automatically reduces its size in a matter of seconds. You will be happy to learn that the tool supports batch processing, so if you plan to upload an album to a somewhat restrictive social network or your personal blog, the tool can save you a lot of time and effort.

On the down side, the application does not allow you to preview the images that you want to process. While it may not be such a big deal for a single picture, in batch processing, there is a chance that you also process pictures you do not really want to upload for various reasons. Perhaps, this feature would be added in the feature, so you can quickly view and remove items you do not need.

TinyPNG.App is an easy to use application that can come in handy for amateurs and professionals alike as it works equally well for a vacation album on Facebook as well as some professional landscapes you plan to share on a niche blog.
