I just stumbled upon some awesome new ways to compress video and images, but not only that you can remove the background from videos and all sorts of good stuff that'll save you some serious time.

IMAGE UPSCALER :: UPSCALE.MEDIA

Downside is that it uses a credit sytem where you purchase credits, but it lets you do 3 for free without an account. So if you're in a pinch this may save the day. Also in Mac App Store.

COMPRESS VIDEO :: SHRINKIT

This app in the app store works really good and its a one time fee of something like $10. I can't remeber rand it won't show me sine I already bought it. Its free to download but then you can purchase it in settings.

COMPRESS IMAGES :: TINYPNG

Compress up to 20 images at a time for free. Or pay $25 a year for unlimited. Plus that little panda looks so friendly waving at ya.

TIP: I usually compress them in Preview first down to 1920px wide and 72 resolution, then I upload them and it goes by faster than waiting forever to compress each one.

SAVE VIDEOS :: VIDDOWNLOADER

works great with most any site and gives you options to download in different file formats.

SAVE SONGS :: GETMP3

Best for audio. I found that using this for videos I would still have to convert the video using Handbrake or something of the like. Perfect for grabbing the audio out of videos.

SAVE INSTAGRAM VIDEOS :: iGRAM

On iPhone it'll save it to your iCloud drive so then you can airdrop it to your computer or pull it up on iCloud.

Only works on account that are public. (Duh, makes sense right?)

EXPERTE BACKGROUND REMOVER

Works great on most photos.It's 100% free and gives you the same quality image you upload. It doesn't always analyze the picture right, but its always worth a try.

*FREE

REMOVAL.AI

Free Background romover form image but with a a few design tools to help you build graphics. Well done!

REMOVE BACKGROUNDS FROM IMAGES :: REMOVE.BG

This works for free but shoots out a lower res image. Its not horrible, but if you were printing something 3ft tall it wouldn't be best. Great for the web though.

*Paid

REMOVE BACKGROUND FROM VIDEO

Works good for short clips but you may need to pay for a larger.
