What Crush.pics is
Crush.pics is a Shopify app that automates image compression, file naming, and alt text optimization. It processes product, collection, blog, page, and Shopify Files images, while external-hosted images are not accessible. Merchants can choose Balanced, Conservative, or Custom compression settings and process images in batches. Filename templates can use Shopify fields such as vendor, product type, title, and variant. Generated alt text comes from the store’s product catalogue. Automations handle existing images and new images as they arrive. Supported formats are JPEG/JPG, PNG, WebP, GIF, and AVIF, with both compression modes listed. Original images remain available for 30 days and can be restored with one click. The app is installed through the Shopify App Store and runs in Shopify admin. A free plan provides 25 MB once for compression; paid monthly plans start at $4.99 for 500 MB and 100 images per hour.
