Compress Images

Shrink image file size while keeping good quality.

How to use the Image Compressor

  1. Add your images

    Drop in JPG, PNG or WebP files, one at a time or in a batch.

  2. Set the quality

    Move the slider and watch the estimated file size change. Lower quality means a smaller file, and the default is a good starting point for most photos.

  3. Check and download

    Compare the compressed result against the original, then save the images you are happy with.

About the Image Compressor

Modern phone cameras produce files far larger than anything they are used for. A photo destined for a website, an email attachment or a marketplace listing rarely needs more than a fraction of its original weight, and most images shrink by 50-80% with no difference you can see at normal viewing size. This tool lets you make that trade deliberately: choose a quality level, see the resulting file size before you commit, and download only when you are happy with it.

It handles JPG, PNG and WebP, and it earns its place whenever a size limit is in the way. An upload form that caps attachments at 2 MB, a website whose pages load slowly because every image is a full-resolution camera original, a government form that rejects your document scan for being too large.

Compression runs in your browser, which has two consequences worth stating plainly. Your images are never uploaded, so private photographs and document scans stay on your device. And there is no fixed file-size cap or daily quota, because there is no server doing the work and therefore nothing for anyone to ration.

Frequently asked questions

How much can I compress an image?
Most photos shrink by 50-80% with no visible difference. You control the quality level and see the resulting size before downloading.
Does compressing an image reduce its quality?
Some data is discarded, but at the default setting the change is not visible at normal viewing size. Raise the quality slider if you need an exact look.
Is there a file size limit?
No fixed limit — the practical ceiling is your device's memory. Everything runs in your browser, so your files never leave your device.
