What it does
Most Android video compressors bury the actual feature under ad-spam, clutter, and slowdowns. OctoZip is the opposite. ⚡ OctoBoost — our speed engine compresses videos in seconds, not minutes. 🧹 Clean — a focused interface, no clutter, no ads interrupting your task. 🐙 On-device — your videos are compressed locally and never uploaded. Core compression is free and unlimited. Pro adds the power stuff: batch, max quality, 8K output, and huge files (5GB+). Built solo under Meru Apps.
OctoZip shrinks your videos by up to 90% right on your phone — no uploads, no quality loss. Perfect for Instagram, TikTok, WhatsApp and YouTube.
Best Quality preset — original resolution, zero quality loss. “Every compressor I tried was slow or ad-stuffed, so I built the one I actuallyfrom octozip.meruapps.com

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.

The most significant changes since 5.1.0 are a new tap trust security mechanism, the new faster, smaller, default internal Homebrew JSON API, sandboxing on Linux, better defaults informed by our user survey, many brew bundle improvements, improved performance and initial support for macOS 27 (Golden Gate). 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!
