Why Compress Images?
- Faster websites — smaller images load quicker and improve SEO.
- Fit upload limits — forms and portals often cap file size (e.g. 100 KB or 1 MB).
- Save storage and data — smaller files use less space and mobile data.
- Easier sharing — quicker to send by email or WhatsApp.
Is It Safe and Private?
Yes. This tool processes your image entirely inside your browser using HTML canvas. Your photo is never uploaded to a server, stored, or seen by anyone — it never leaves your device.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I reduce the size of an image?
Upload it here, lower the quality to around 70–80%, optionally set a smaller max width, and click Compress Image. Then download the smaller file. WebP gives the smallest results.
Are my images uploaded to a server?
No. Compression happens entirely in your browser, so your images stay private on your device and are never sent anywhere.
How can I compress an image to 100 KB?
Lower the quality slider and reduce the max width until the “Compressed” size shows around 100 KB. WebP and lower widths help reach small targets.
Will compressing reduce image quality?
Slightly, depending on the setting. At 70–85% quality the loss is usually invisible, while very low settings make it more noticeable. Preview before downloading.
What is the best format for the web?
WebP usually gives the smallest file at the same quality and is supported by all modern browsers. Use JPG when you need maximum compatibility.
Does it work on mobile?
Yes. You can choose a photo from your phone, compress it and download the smaller version, all in your mobile browser.
Conclusion
Compressing images is the easiest way to speed up your website, meet upload limits and save data — without sending your photos to a stranger’s server. Use the tool above to shrink any JPG, PNG or WebP in your browser and download the smaller file in seconds.
