Looking for recommendations … I do a lot of my writing for my Ghost blog on my iPad, and I upload the photos for the posts from there. It would be a good idea if I could upload suitably sized photos rather than the full-sized images for speed. Can anyone recommend a good app on the iPad for resizing photos that saves the resized image as a copy (and leaves the original alone). Tried a few from the App Store but couldn’t find anything that would just let me specify the output size in pixels. Plenty that would optimise it for Instagram; Twitter; FB; put stickers on it; add frames; apply the latest funky filter to it; or make it into a collage etc … but just resize it, maybe compress it and save it as a copy, not so much 🙂 TIA, Jamie ---

As far as compressing on the go, I like [tinypng.com](http://tinypng.com), works in iOS. No resizing though. ---

I tried this and it was quite good for my iPad Air. But when I updated to iOS 11.3, it didn’t seem to work properly but it did work on other **[iPad models](https://www.cfone.net/apple-ipad-models-generations.html)** like iPad Mini 4 and iPad Pro. Have you ever had this problem? ---

Pixelmator for iOS has the ability to resize images: ![PNG%20image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/ghost2/original/1X/5f893187648017367e3d5756a831c0aa61373a68.jpg) ---

I have used [snapseed](https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/snapseed/id439438619) for blogging from my android (also available for iOS). You can crop and do a lot of fancy stuff before you export the image. The resolution and quality of the export can be configured in settings. ---

I really wish there was a great iOS app that can resize, add text, add drop shadows for visibility/contrast, and export at various image compressions. Seems tough to find, other than a full image editor app. ---
