I recently shelled out for ad free, but feared CompressPhotosPictures was abandonware since there hadn't been any updates in a long time. So, I was glad to see the privacy update! That's great.
What's not so good: CompressPhotosPictures was already glitchy in occasionally stalling out midw... Show more ay through a multi-file compression, and now it does it a lot more. Fairly unreliable now.
Also, the interface still has all the same silly limitations. You can't control the percent of the reduction precisely, but only in 5% increments. Sometimes that's nice/fine, but sometimes it doesn't give you the size you want. Also, the whole interface is slow and laggy-- buttons appear, but they don't work for several seconds, so you just have to wait and keep retrying.
Finally, although it's a minor annoyance of bad design, the home screen has just one function: to let you tap to start. Yet you must tap on one very tiny button in the middle of the screen (the +), and the whole rest of the screen does nothing.
