Research direction

Start by reading the image conversion entry points and the UI for image options; this issue does not name files or tests. Determine how the app handles image formats and what compression settings can control, then assess how to let users specify a target size in KB or MB. Done means users can request a target size and the resulting image meets it; the issue leaves the compression-versus-expansion behavior unspecified.

Description

enhancement
What would you like Filee to do?

Hello Dev, I suggest adding a useful feature to your incredible tool: image compression option with input to enter the desired file size. This feature would allow users to specify a desired file size in KB or MB, and the image would then be compressed or expanded to meet those specifications.

Why / when would you use it?

Use case: Requesting a specific file size upload on online platform.
