If the file isn’t compressed to your liking, you can jump into the settings by clicking the gear icon and making adjustments there. ImageOptim displays a percentage of savings on the right side beside the new, compressed file’s size. You can also navigate through the Finder within ImageOptim by clicking the + button. You’ll immediately see a few spinning circles beside each file as ImageOptim mashes away unnecessary bits of the file to bring its size down. Simply navigate to the image file you need to compress (I export all my photos to an Exported Photos folder on my desktop), click, and drag the images into ImageOptim’s window. ImageOptim is one of the simplest macOS apps I’ve ever used. This is a must-have app on every Mac I own and is one of the main reasons why I find it difficult to immediately switch over to an iPad for all my computing needs. It can handle PNGs and even GIFs as well. It handles JPGs with relative ease, compressing an image anywhere from 80% of the image’s original file size all the way down to (only) 20% of the image’s original file size, all within about 2 or 3 seconds. ImageOptim is open-source and has handled just about any image file type I’ve thrown at it for the last five-plus years. It’s jam-packed with training, ideas, and lessons that can literally transform your photography overnight.
