How It Works
Image compression rebuilds your pictures at a lower quality or target file size using the canvas API in your browser. Pixels are read from your files locally, re-encoded (for example as JPEG at a chosen quality), and saved for download—so thumbnails, product shots, and personal photos are not uploaded to our servers for this step.
How to Use
- Add one or more images on the Compress tab (JPG, PNG, WebP, and other supported formats).
- Set quality (1–100) with the slider, and optionally enter a target size in KB for tighter limits.
- Click “Compress” to process all selected images and wait for the progress bar to finish.
- Download one file or a ZIP when several images were processed.
Common Use Cases
- Shrinking photos before attaching them to email or school portals.
- Meeting upload limits on job sites, marketplaces, or CMS media libraries.
- Reducing banner and hero images so web pages load faster.
- Batch-processing screenshots so shared folders use less storage.
FAQ
- Will compressing ruin my image quality?
- Lowering quality removes fine detail and can show JPEG artifacts near edges and gradients. Start near 80% quality for photos; increase if you see banding, or decrease if you only need a small preview. PNG-to-JPEG compression changes format and can affect transparency.
- Is it safe to compress images online here?
- Compression runs in your browser: files are not sent to our servers for encoding. Still follow your organization’s rules for confidential images, and avoid processing on shared devices without clearing downloads afterward.
- Why is my compressed file still big?
- Very large dimensions or complex PNGs may stay large until you also resize dimensions or switch to a more efficient format (for example WebP). Some images are already heavily compressed, leaving little room to shrink further.
