Guest Paul Posted July 21, 2010 Report Posted July 21, 2010 Welcome to 'Paul's App of the Day', where I pick one of my favourite apps as featured app of the day! Today's app is... Image Shrink What they sayShrink/resize your photos with just one click before you send it. Send images to Image Shrink by "share" or "send to" before you send them to target app. What we say Thanks to MoDaCo member Kilack for alerting me to this app in our suggestion topic! This app is SO useful! I've lost count of the number of times i've taken a picture (at full resolution), shared it via Twitter or Email and then waited an AGE while it uploaded over my slow over-the-air connection. No more! With Image Shrink I can now select a target size for the picture before I share it, thus alleviating for example the one negative I have with my favourite Twitter app, Seesmic. Awesome! Once again, simple yet indispensable! Permissions WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE / com.google.android.providers.gmail.permission.READ_GMAIL Download View Image Shrink at AppBrain QRcode To use, install 'Barcode Scanner' from the Android Market. Price FREE 'lite' version, paid ¥99 (~75p) version adds the ability to shrink multiple images, auto delete old shrunken images and shrink images in gmail preview. Market star rating at time of writing 4.40 (52 ratings) Version at time of writing 1.5 Similar / Alternative apps None that I am aware of. Suggested improvements for the next version This is great really, I'm not sure you need any more features. :angry: Have your say Fan of Image Shrink? Found something better? Just wanna share your experiences? Post below! :D
Guest M Brouns Posted July 21, 2010 Report Posted July 21, 2010 Also very useful when sharing pics over MMS as the standard Desire pic-shrinker makes it a too low-res. Tx ;-)
Guest xaueious Posted July 21, 2010 Report Posted July 21, 2010 (edited) Paul make a blog! I hope you don't run out of awesome apps or time to review apps regularly. Daily is a big commitment :angry: Didn't know about this one. Edited July 21, 2010 by xaueious
Guest Paul Posted July 21, 2010 Report Posted July 21, 2010 I have a blog, I just don't post on it, lol! I don't envisage running out of cool apps any time soon! P
Guest arunshen Posted July 21, 2010 Report Posted July 21, 2010 Can you preset image sizes per destination? e.g. 640-480 for Facebook, 1024x768 for TwitPic, Full res for Flickr etc? i.e. when you post/share it automatically resizes per destination? Now that would be good ... :angry:
Guest Paul Posted July 21, 2010 Report Posted July 21, 2010 That would be cool... email the author! :angry: P
Guest Kilack Posted July 21, 2010 Report Posted July 21, 2010 Yeah email the author, i asked him to add more sizes and he had it done a day later, seems a nice guy.
