Merchants describe this app as easy to install and use, with one‑click image optimization and a clean interface. They like the pay‑as‑you‑go pricing and say compression is fast, high quality, and often lossless. Many report faster site speed, better PageSpeed scores, and time saved batch‑optimizing large catalogs. Merchants also value the alt text and filename tools for SEO, and often praise support as fast and helpful.

This app removed all 725 images from my product catalog and broke my site. I guess I won't be using this app again. No troubleshooting for the app, bad idea. Be very careful
WARNING: Running Minifier will break your images on Internet Explorer. There are some image formats that don't work correctly in IE. Just do a google search and you will see 100's of results about this. Here is one such article on Stack Overflow: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1204288/jpeg-shows-in-firefox-but-not-ie8
We are having to go back now and manually update all our images so our site works again in IE. Total pain in the $&@
I used your product for my website https://dresslikemommy-com.myshopify.com and after checking on google speed test I notice no difference. I want my money back. This does not work! I was supposed to have optimized all the images from my website. Well that is not what google says!!!!
Go here an check by yourself:
https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights/
put my website: www.dresslikemommy.com
It does not work. I want my money back!
App not as described. Does not achieve 30% reduction of photos. In my case, an average of less than 12% reduction, which I found out only after paying. Tech support very slow to respond (days and days). They offered to refund my payment b/c I felt they drastically misrepresented their product, but never heard back. Would not recommend at all.
Shit app. Can't see what is being 'optimised' until after you pay.
My optimisation ended up being about 50 images that could save 1-5kb...
Dev also doesn't respond...
this app compressed all our images but distorted them in the process. now we have to upload all our images again and replace the ones this app distorted. i would NOT recommend this app. very annoyed.
I was charged with photos that saved me 0% in size! Not very honest tbh. Don't really like the email notification spam!
If I could give this app zero stars I would. Customer service Zero!!! Got this app to try over all of my file names, not possible. All this does is barely compress files. Piece of junk, don't bother.
Hi Justin! System shows that you didn't select an option to optimize file names when using auto-optimization maybe that's why Minifier didn't touch them. Anyway, I emailed you on how we can fix that, just let me know if I can proceed and we'll get the problem solved in no time!
I paid $18.21 for my product photos to be optimized and they're ruined now. Pictures are very blurry, pixeled and discolored, and there is NO reversal. These are hundreds of photos. I have to delete the photos from 80% of my listings and reupload the photos because they are so bad. Time and money wasted.
Hello Alexis Daoud Jewelry,
We're truly sorry that you've met some difficulties while using the app.
Please, let me inform you that the app provides a 30-day free backup image storage, during which images can be reverted.
I wish you had addressed to us earlier so that we could assist you with it.
Rest assure that we've contacted Shopify and initiated full refund for you.
It should reach you within these few days.
I hope that we can resolve this issue with mutual understanding.
Best regards,
Minifier SEO Image Optimizer team
I attempted to contact Support at Minifier before posting this, but after waiting over a week without any response, I'm going ahead with this review.
Minifier touted its features well and even when processing our images for our Shopify store it appeared to be doing all it promoted. However, we ran a Google Page Speed test immediately before and after and Google still recommends image optimization. We saw a 1 point improvement in our Google scores, even though Minifier reported up to 80% savings in file sizes.
I just don't see any value in this product. We'll try something else.
