Why images pile up before publishing
A single post can need five or ten images — screenshots, photos, diagrams — usually straight from a phone or a design tool at full size. Compressing each one individually before uploading is the kind of small, repetitive task that's easy to skip, so the Media Library slowly fills up with oversized files.
How it works
- Pay once for QuickTiny Pro — $4.99, no subscription.
- Select all the images for a post (or a batch of posts) at once.
- Compress and download each file, then upload them through WordPress's normal Media Library uploader.
Why local processing matters
Everything runs on your device using your browser's canvas API. Images aren't sent to QuickTiny's servers at any point — only the one-time PayPal payment touches a server, and that's for billing, not your files.
Free tool vs. Batch Pro
For a one-off image, the free Image Compressor does the same compression at no cost. Batch Pro is for when you have a stack of images to prepare at once — a long post, a photo-heavy page, or several posts queued up together.
Good fits for this
- Photo-heavy blog posts or tutorials
- Preparing a backlog of posts before a publishing sprint
- Cleaning up a folder of screenshots before writing them up
- Replacing oversized images already used on existing pages
Frequently asked questions
Is this a WordPress plugin?
No. QuickTiny is a standalone browser tool, not a WordPress plugin, and isn't affiliated with or endorsed by WordPress. Compress your images here first, then upload the results through your site's normal Media Library.
What image formats does it accept?
You can select JPG or PNG images. Files are compressed and exported as JPG.
Will this change the image dimensions?
No. It reduces file size at the same width and height — it doesn't crop or resize.
Do I need a WordPress account to use this?
No account of any kind is needed to compress images. You only need WordPress afterward, to upload the compressed files as you normally would.
Is this a subscription?
No. QuickTiny Pro is a single one-time payment of $4.99 that unlocks batch compression permanently in that browser.
Do I need to install a plugin?
No. This runs entirely in your browser as a separate step before uploading — there's nothing to install on your WordPress site, and no plugin to keep updated or troubleshoot.
