Field notes
The interface pairs a drop zone or file picker with five output-format choices and a maximum-width field. A separate “Keep metadata (EXIF)” control is called out; the page notes that retained photo metadata can include GPS location. Its format guide says AVIF can yield smaller files at the cost of slower encoding, while JXL is best treated as an archive format because the page says display support is currently limited to Safari.
