CropSize: Photo Resizer Editor

Using CropSize I am now able to have a more streamlined workflow for managing my wife’s website images. She is an artist, and so I have to work with a large number of images. Some while ago I devised a scheme whereby artwork info could be embedded in the IPTC section of a jpg file . . . Title, Medium, Dimensions and Portfolio. I used IPTC fields Heading, Caption, Supplementary Category and Category to hold the information. I upload the full size image file embedded with the IPTC data I need. Using PHP and a little JS, I extract the IPTC information from the jpg file and use it accordingly, while at the same time create a thumbnail for each portfolio front page. All worked well when I could sit or stand at my iMac and use Lightroom. Medical reasons presently prevent me from doing so. But I can readily work while reclining in a lounge chair with an iPad Pro, Apple Keyboard and Pencil. Lightroom CC for iOS is nearly worthless, so I’ve spent the last 3 days investigating means to accomplish what I need. CropSize does exactly what I needed for editing IPTC data. My only wish list item is to be able to load image files from a location other than iOS Photos. My website images are in the website directory, so I have to copy an image to Photos, process with CropSize and then copy back to the original directory before ftp to server. So again, thank you for producing such a great tool and providing it a very reasonable price.

Had to resize some photos taken with my iPhone to post on a blog website. This app works great. It took me a few minutes to figure the whole thing out and some experimentation saving the photos on my iPad. The selecting of photos from my library then choosing what I wanted to do, then accomplishing the resize, then saving and eventually retrieving and posting takes quite a few steps but does work great.

One of the main reasons I've been keeping this app around anymore is to quickly check the pixel dimensions and file sizes of photos before I choose whether or not to resize them. Before this last update, I could simply tap a photo on the list and the bottom of the screen would give me that information right away. Now you have to tap that bottom bar to reach a hidden screen where that information's been tucked away. And if you select multiple photos to check, that same screen only shows the info for whichever one you most recently tapped. Why would you make this so complicated? It used to be that CropSize was the best resizing app around, enough so that it lived on my iPad dock—now I don't even want to open it anymore.

All I need is an app that allows me to resize images (in cm or inches) and then either save them at the new size or at least let me print them at the new size. This app claims to do just that. But it doesn’t work. There were so many good reviews I decided to take the $5 chance. It was a mistake. I choose a photo. I choose the size — 4.5 x 6.5 inches. I check and double check the size. Make sure everything’s correct. I print it. Of course it prints the image at 8x10. Why? Because that was the size of the original image. In other words, it does nothing. I’m happy someone’s getting good use out of this app. Unfortunately it couldn’t handle the job I needed it to do.

I routinely capture screenshots on my iPad Pro 12.9 and need to crop and downsize images for Keynote and PowerPoint. This software makes it EASY. I simply resize, then custom crop the first one, then save it as a PROGRAM (workflow). This creates an optimize file size with the image cropped to my needs. I can then select multiple images and in an instant optimize every one. This makes my iPad Pro MUCH more useful. I used to have to use my Mac for this workflow.
