Not in a way you can see. Smart quality looks at each photo and picks the smallest file that still looks the same. You can hold the photo after compressing to compare it with the original, and the original stays in your library until you choose to replace it.
No. Every photo, video and PDF is compressed on your iPhone or iPad, so it works offline too. Your compression history syncs only through your own iCloud.
Compress single photos as often as you like, change their format, and compress your first video and your first PDF. Pro adds batches of up to 50 photos, unlimited videos and PDFs, size limits like 500 KB or Email, custom dimensions, and your full history.
Photos in JPEG, HEIC and PNG, which you can save as JPEG, HEIC, PNG or PDF. Videos from your library, saved as H.264 or HEVC. And PDF documents, from scans to photo-heavy files.
Choose Size limit and pick 500 KB, 1 MB, 2 MB, Email or Discord. Compressor finds the best quality that fits under it. Size limits are part of Pro.
Only if you ask it to. Compressor saves a new copy. To free up space, turn on Delete original after saving in Settings; iOS asks you to confirm, and the originals stay in Recently Deleted for 30 days.
iPhone and iPad with iOS 17 or later. The app is available in 18 languages, including English, Spanish, French, German, Japanese, Korean, Chinese and Arabic.
