What it does

Photos from modern phones and cameras are large, and many services reject them or take ages to upload. Resize Image solves this with a small, focused interface. You select one or many files, choose a new size by percentage or by exact width and height, decide whether to keep the aspect ratio, and set the output quality for JPEG. The app can overwrite the originals or, more safely, save resized copies with a suffix or into another folder. It integrates with File Explorer, so you can right-click a selection of pictures and resize them without opening the app first. Common formats such as JPG, PNG, BMP, GIF and TIFF are supported, and the app can also convert between them. For people who regularly prepare product photos for a web shop, pictures for a blog or scans for official forms, this saves a lot of repetitive clicking in a heavy editor.

How to use it

1. Install Resize Image; the developer links to it from its blog and project page.
2. Open the app and add images, or select them in File Explorer and use the context menu.
3. Choose the target size in percent or pixels and keep aspect ratio on.
4. Pick the output folder and quality, then start.
5. Check a few results before deleting any originals.

Requirements

Resize Image runs on Windows and needs no special hardware. Batch jobs with many large photos benefit from a faster processor and an SSD.

Tips

For websites, a width that matches the layout of the page is usually enough, and moderate JPEG quality keeps files small without visible loss. For official forms, check the maximum file size and the required dimensions first, then resize once from the original instead of shrinking an already reduced copy again.

Safety

The app processes files locally on your PC; nothing is uploaded. Get it from the developer's page or the Microsoft Store listing it links to, and keep the originals until you are happy with the results.

Price

Resize Image is free.
