New stock, wrong format
New stock photos land on the shop phone as HEIC, and the website's upload form does not recognise the format. The same photo, full size straight from an iPhone, is too heavy to post quickly on the shop's own Wi-Fi, so a five-minute job to update the listings turns into an afternoon.
What the tool does
Jobbit's guide to resizing images for free covers exactly this: the resizer takes a whole folder at once, HEIC included, converts it to the format you need and resizes it for the platform you pick, Instagram, a website, an eBay listing or a passport photo, then returns everything as one named zip file rather than one download per photo. It resamples properly rather than just shrinking the file, which is where cheap free resizers go soft, and it tells you afterwards what it changed: which photos were cropped to fit a square, which stayed too small to enlarge without looking worse.
Free image tools, compared
| What you need | Typical free tool | Jobbit |
|---|---|---|
| Batch processing | TinyPNG takes 20 images at a time on the free tier, 5 MB each | Whole folder in, one zip out |
| HEIC support | Squoosh and TinyPNG do not accept HEIC files | HEIC, JPG, PNG and WebP either way |
| Platform sizing | Canva's Magic Resize needs Canva Pro | Instagram, eBay, website sizes built into the form |
Three steps for a folder of new stock
- Attach the whole folder, HEIC files included, to the image resizer, no need to convert anything first.
- Pick the job from the list, HEIC to JPG, Instagram post, or under 200 KB for the website, and the output format you need.
- Download the single zip, check a couple of images at full size on a screen, and post or upload straight from there.
Where the free tool stops
Jobbit's free plan gives 100 credits a day, no card needed, which is enough for a shop's regular batches of new stock or before-and-after photos, and originals are never overwritten, so the full-size file is still there if a supplier or a print job needs it later. Daily uploads across several staff accounts, or background removal on hundreds of product shots every week, is where a paid plan starts to earn its keep instead of the free form.
