Convert on our server?

If you continue, the file is uploaded over an encrypted connection and converted on our server. You can keep using the site meanwhile. The original is deleted as soon as it is converted; the result is kept for 7 days so you can download it, and you can delete it at any time. Files are never shared or used for anything else.

Your images are processed in your browser and are not uploaded. If a file is too large for your browser or in a format it can’t handle, we ask before converting it on our server. The original is deleted right after conversion; the result is kept for 7 days for you to download, unless you delete it sooner. Privacy details

How to use: Image Compressor

  1. 1 Set the quality (75 is a good balance of size and appearance).
  2. 2 Choose the output format, or keep the original format.
  3. 3 Optionally enter a maximum width or height. Shrinking large photos saves the most space.
  4. 4 Add your images; each one shows its new size and the percentage saved.
  5. 5 Change the settings and press “Apply new settings” to try again, then download.

About this tool

Photos from phones and cameras are often several megabytes, far more than needed for an email, a web page or an online form. Compressing them reduces the file size while keeping them looking good.

Tips for the smallest files

  • Limit the longest side. A 4000-pixel photo shown on a website at 1200 pixels wastes most of its size. Setting a maximum of 1920 or 1600 pixels often cuts the file size by 70% or more.
  • Use JPG or WebP for photos. WebP is typically 25–35% smaller than JPG at similar quality and keeps transparency.
  • PNG is lossless, so compressing a PNG as PNG usually saves little. Converting it to WebP, or to JPG if it has no transparency, saves much more.

If the compressed file would be larger than the original, the tool tells you so you can keep the original instead.

Images are compressed in your browser and are not uploaded.

Frequently asked questions

How much smaller will my images get?

It depends on the image. Typical phone photos shrink by 50–80% at quality 75, and much more if you also limit the dimensions. Images that are already well compressed may barely shrink, and the tool shows the exact result for each file.

Will compression reduce quality?

JPG and WebP compression removes detail that is hard to see. At quality 70–85 most people can't tell the difference on screen. Lower values make files smaller but can introduce visible artefacts.

Why did my PNG barely get smaller?

PNG is lossless, so the browser can only re-save the same pixels. Choose WebP output (keeps transparency) or JPG output (no transparency) for large savings.

Is EXIF data removed?

Yes. Compressed images are saved without the original metadata, such as camera details and GPS location, which also saves a little space.
