## What it is
A native macOS application that acts as a third-party client for the TinyPNG image compression service. Users can drag and drop images or use Finder services to compress and convert images (PNG, JPEG, AVIF, WEBP) without opening a browser.

## Use cases
- compress png images on mac without a browser
- batch compress images by dragging folders
- convert images to webp or avif
- compress images from finder context menu
- reduce image file sizes using tinypng api

## When to choose
- you use macOS and want a native TinyPNG client
- you compress images frequently and want drag-and-drop or Finder integration
- you want to convert between PNG, JPEG, AVIF, and WEBP while compressing

## When to avoid
- you are not on macOS 13 Ventura or later
- you want fully offline compression without a TinyPNG API key
- you need Linux or Windows support
