ImageOptim is a front-end (GUI) for set of tools for optimisation of PNG and JPEG images.

Optimisation makes files smaller (in terms of disk space) by finding optimal compression parameters and by removing unneccessary information, like file comments, EXIF tags and color profiles.
What's New
Version 1.4.0:
  • Included PNGOUT by default (with permission of Ardfry Imaging, LLC). Now ImageOptim includes all best optimisation tools out of the box.
  • Simplified preferences: options for stripping PNG chunks and JPEG EXIF data are in one place.
  • Localization fixes by Gildas Lormeau
  • "View Source" option - because not only web apps have viewable source code :)
  • Website moved to http://imageoptim.com
Requirements
Intel, Mac OS X 10.6.4 or later

Does what it says on the tin with very little effort. The only improvement I cold ask for is for it to run faster on large images, but I know that's not possible without replacing the underlying software.

I love it, got tons of images for my last website optimized in some minutes automatically without any noticeable quality loss.
Just drag&drop images to the app window and it does the hard job for you, it let you take a break and eat a slice of pie or continue working without worrying for the monotone task of image optimization.

Oh! And its free. =3

This is an absolutely flawless application. It does what it is designed to do better than any application on my computer (I have hundreds). PNG files from my Web site designer get reduced by up to 80% without any discernible loss in quality! ImageOptim is glorious in its simplicity and ease of use. It's drag-and-drop heaven!

Still one the of the best little utilities of its kind. Does one thing and does it well and does with both major web graphic formats. Features rating on this one is a bit pointless and it doesn't really apply.

Wow. This is the simplest, fastest and wonderfullest png/gif/jpg optimiser eva!

Knocked a good few % off some files even after we had used pngcrush; and supports gifs and jpgs too.

The curious part of me would like to see a log showing which of the attempted optimisations was best, but other than that it's just fabulous :-)

Great app to narrow down bandwidth. But it sometimes struggles with JPEG2000 files creating corrupted files.
Any fix for this?

My last review for this was in 2008, and this is still an essential go-to tool. The perfect minimal UI and an excellent set of options for compression. This fully deserves 5 stars, then and now!

I recently discovered this app while reading about a paid competitor. This recent upgrade has risen the bar considerably for this amazing free app. I couldn't imagine coding a website now without it!

So... It's theoretically impossible for this app to decrease the quality of my images, right? If that is the case, then 5 stars all the way! Very simple to use and efficient. Some images have their size reduced by 40% or more. Great for reddit and 4chan browsers who have large collections of images.
