What it does

Whole folders at once

Drop files or folders (with subfolders). Originals are never touched; results go to a Converted folder.

Right size, right weight

Resize to a longest edge and set quality — or just say 'under 500 KB' and BatchShift finds the best quality that fits.

Remove location

GPS is stripped by default. A separate tool removes location without re-compressing the photo.

Does the details right

Respects photo rotation, gives transparent PNGs a white background in JPG, and uses every CPU core.

Watch a folder

Point it at Downloads or a camera folder and new images are converted automatically.

Ask your AI
