How to compress an image
- Choose your photos or images, or drag them onto the box above. JPG, PNG, HEIC and WebP all work.
- Pick how much to shrink them. Recommended works for most uploads.
- Select Compress. You'll see each file's new size, and they download right away (several come in a ZIP).
Questions
Which level should I pick?
Light keeps nearly full detail. Recommended makes photos up to 2000 pixels wide, plenty for screens and most application portals. Strong goes to 1280 pixels for the tightest limits, like profile photos or forms capped at 1 MB.
What format do I get back?
JPG, because it's accepted everywhere and is the smallest for photos. Transparent areas in PNGs become white.
What if my image is already small?
If compressing wouldn't make a JPG or PNG any smaller, you get the original back unchanged rather than a worse copy.
Are my photos uploaded?
No. Compression happens inside your browser, so your images never leave your device.
