Using the Photo Resize app: Step-by-step instructions to get started

Updated this week

Here are the steps to use our Shopify Photo Resize app

Step 1 - Analyze your store

After installing the app, click the ‘Analyze store’ button. The app will begin analyzing your store to identify which product images don’t meet the default image settings. By default, the app checks whether the image is square (1:1 aspect ratio).

All the images that do not meet the default image settings will be recommended for resizing.

Step 2 - Select images to resize

Once the app finishes analyzing, you'll be redirected to the Image Analysis page. This is where you can select images to resize.

Our Pixc: Photo Resize app automatically selects all images recommended for resizing. The recommended images are based on the default image settings (Add Frame, 1:1 aspect ratio)

You can change the image settings anytime from the Settings page

However, if you want to try the Pixc: Photo Resize app first, you have 50 free images upon installing the app. You can use the ‘filters’ to choose which product photos to resize. The filter system works similarly to Shopify’s filters, so it should feel familiar and easy to use.

Step 3 - Preview selected images

We strongly recommend previewing your selected images first before resizing. This way, you can visualize how your product photos will look in your store without using your 50 free images or paying.

The image table lets you visualize your product images after they're resized. You can click the 'Before' and 'After' buttons to see how they look. If you want to resize the images to a different aspect ratio, you can change the settings at any time on the 'Settings' page.

No actual changes have been made to your images at this point. Only when you click the 'Resize' button when the app actually resized your selected product photos.

Step 4 - Resize your images

If you're happy with the images, click the Resize button.

If this is your first time using the Pixc: Photo Resize app, you still have 50 free images to resize. Otherwise, the app will direct you to the payment page, where you can select the payment option that suits you.

The Photo Resize app will begin resizing your images and automatically update your store with the resized versions. You can step away or even close the page while the app works—we’ll send you an email notification once the process is finished.
