Picture Quality Reducer

Picture Quality Reducer is a small software application developed specifically for helping you reduce the quality of JPEG pictures so you can quickly upload them via online platforms.
You need to install Microsoft .NET Framework on the target computer in order to run the program without experiencing bugs and all sorts of errors.

Portable running mode

You can take advantage of the tool’s portability status and keep it stored on pen drives or other portable devices to carry it with you all the time. You can open it by running the executable file because you do not have to go through an installation process.
Uninstalling the utility means only deleting the files that you have downloaded from the Internet. You may also run it without administrative privileges.

Easy-to-decode design

You are welcomed by a clean and simple layout that gathers all configuration settings into a single window. Although you cannot appeal to a help manual, you can quickly get an idea about how to alter the JPEG quality because the dedicated parameters look easy to work with.

Change JPEG quality on the fly

Picture Quality Reducer gives you the possibility to import images using the built-in browse button (the drag-and-drop support is not implemented). There’s no support for a preview mode so you cannot check out photos directly in the main window.
You can specify a custom folder where multiple JPEG pictures are stored and pick the saving directory. What’s more, you can check out details about each imported file, like name, date, size, resolution, dimension, and bit depth. Batch actions can be employed for processing multiple items at the same time.
You are allowed to manually select the pictures that you want to process, set the target JPEG quality, as well as overwrite existing files. Tests have pointed out that Picture Quality Reducer carries out tasks quickly and without errors. It does not eat up a lot of CPU and memory resources so the overall performance of the computer is not affected.

Conclusion

The bottom line is that Picture Quality Reducer makes it really easy for you to reduce the JPEG quality of your photos without having to spend time tweaking complex setup parameters. It can be configured by rookies and professionals alike.
