Section 1.1: PhotoBulk

PhotoBulk is an essential tool for anyone looking to upload images to blogs, websites, or social media platforms.

I personally utilize PhotoBulk to efficiently compress and resize images for my blog, and it has completely transformed my workflow. On my M1 Mac, I can now import and compress a set of 10 4K images in under a second—an impressive feat that justifies the app's price.
