What changed in 1.4.3

  • Paste images from the clipboard with ⌘V

    Screenshots and copied images become compression tasks instantly, without saving them to disk first.

  • Image rotation

    Rotate images 90°, 180° or 270° as part of the compression pipeline, in the same pass as compression and conversion.

  • GIF output format

    GIF joins JPEG, PNG, HEIC and WebP as a fifth output format.

  • Drag to reorder the batch queue

    Files export in exactly the order you arrange, which matters when the output order is meaningful.

  • WebP EXIF preservation

    WebP exports now preserve EXIF metadata when the keep-metadata option is enabled.

  • Faster, smoother previews

    Smart result caching and task cancellation keep the compare view in sync with every slider movement.

  • Pan zoomed-in previews

    Move around a magnified preview to inspect fine detail up close.

  • In-app language setting

    Switch between System and 50 languages inside the app, with a one-tap restart. This is separate from the App Store localization metadata, which lists 44 language codes.
