Crush: Speed & Image Optimizer

I must admit that I was a HUGE skeptic. After all, I export our images from Photoshop using compression and run them through another optimizer app on my computer before uploading to Shopify. Dom (the developer), the results, and the convenience, have convinced me otherwise.

Dom provides excellent and timely support. You want that in an app with an objective of modifying EVERY image in your store. I needed no support on the install or app use itself. All is seamless and effortless. But Dom made sure I could trust the app to work as advertised, even doing a before/after test I requested before plowing forward.

As for the results, I did not expect much given my prior manual processing, so a 9% gain put a smile on my face. That has translated into about an 8% gain PageSpeed results. Not bad for not lifting a finger. I should also mention that an impromptu A/B test here in our office resulted in no one able to tell our Shopify image from the Crush.pics image. Obviously "lossless" had better be "lossless" and it is.

Now for convenience: there's nothing to it. We will be adding product photos next week and I can't wait to NOT process them like I did before. Upload and done. It cannot be made more simple than automatic.

If you value your time at even minimum wage and you want optimal images for optimal download speed , this app pays for itself over and over again. Take it from a guy who thought he had image optimization down. Spend a little, save a lot of time, gain a lot of page speed, all with no loss of image quality. And rest assured that the developer is there if you need him!

A fantastic Shopify app, it improved our product page load speed by decreasing the file sizes of all our high-resolution photos without hurting the quality and vibrancy. We saw a direct increase in our conversion rate after installing Crush.Pics and best of all, it can all be automated giving you time to focus on other areas of your business. We would highly recommend it to all other Shopify store owners.

Awesome App! Improved my site's page speed on desktop from 57 to 79. Cool!

Easy to use and efficient, i don't need to worry about anything about pictures and optimization, the app does everything for me.

Very happy with this app. It seems to make a difference - especially for mobile. Easy to use also.

Love this app, saved me a lot of time.

Dom was a great help for me. There were some issues in the coding, and for that reason the image compression was not working well. He went and fixed it for me. I really appreciate it. Gabor from YogaCoaster.com

I used the app to compress all my site images. It helps with the speed ratings. I also used it to add SEO alt tags and it did that very well. Overall I'm glad I have this tool in the armoury! Check out my site if you want to see the results at https://www.plasmablobs.com

Great App. The Image rename tool is actually pretty amazing. I knew Google appreciated your pictures file name being related to but I never had the energy to go back through all my images and rename them. Crush helped me do that automatically.

The app did what it was advertised to do. Love the ALT tags and file renaming features for SEO purposes. Very important app for my store as I add new suppliers and inventory. I am pleased.
