Love that I can mass drop video files directly from Eagle.app into your app to compress and save. This is going to save me GB's of storage space. So here's an example...had a library of 841 mp4 clips weighing in at 22GB. After compression (Balanced) 4GB. Great work! I bought GetCompress by @petersamokhin and I'm super happy with it.

TinyFast2025 · tinyfast.app · ▲319I am a developer. I have been building stuff for the last 13 years. One common challenge in all my projects is compressing assets to make them as small as possible. I used to end up using online compressors, but this has a lot of privacy concerns. So, I finally set down for couple of weeks and built this simple app. I can just drag and drop assets in it and it shrinks them. It currently supports around 25 file types. I built a lot of iOS apps but this is the first time building a macOS app, so any feedback is welcome.

Happy to discuss any questions here!

Hi HN! I was super frustrated at apps like tiktok and wechat preventing me from saving or downloading the animated gifs, so I made a little tool to turn a screen recording into a slack-sized emoji. Hope you get some value from this!
