˗ˏˋ NEW FEATURE ˎˊ˗ Picmal now optimizes images the moment you copy them. 📋 As soon as something hits your clipboard, it gets compressed automatically. A small overlay appears so you can instantly grab the lighter version and keep working without breaking your flow.

If you want to know how to activate this, you can simply go to the documentation: #finder-services-right-click-menu" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">picmal.app/docs/integrati…

Picmal is integrated with Finder, allowing you to access certain services by right-clicking on any supported file.

Together with this, I've created two ready-made shortcuts to get you started: 🔄 Convert: icloud.com/shortcuts/00bf… 🗜️ Compress: icloud.com/shortcuts/1656…

🥳 Now Picmal is on Apple's Shortcuts app! Unlock two powerful actions - convert and compress - to streamline your workflows. 💡

One useful feature you can use with Picmal is watched folders. They allow Picmal to automatically process files as they appear in specific folders. 📁 Drop a file into a watched folder, and Picmal converts or compresses it without any manual steps. 🔄

In release 1.3.6, a user request was added for metadata handling during conversion: 🩹 Strip all: Removes all metadata for a smaller file size. 📁 Keep essential: Keeps orientation, color profile, and copyright. 🗂️ Keep all: Retains all original metadata. #PicmalTip
