About the Image Compressor

Image compression reduces file size so pages load faster and uploads fit within limits. Lossless compression rewrites the data more efficiently without changing a pixel. Lossy compression discards detail the eye is unlikely to notice and saves far more. For photographs, a quality setting of roughly 70 to 85 percent usually cuts the file size by more than half with little visible difference.

Smaller images matter for speed. Large images are one of the main causes of slow websites, and email providers and application forms often limit attachment size, so compressing before upload avoids rejection.

This compressor runs in your browser, so your photo is processed on your own device and is not uploaded to a server. Move the quality slider while watching the preview and size readout until you find the smallest file that still looks right.

Worked example

A 4 MB phone photo exported at 85% JPEG quality is often 1 to 1.5 MB. Resizing it to 1600 pixels wide before compressing can bring it under 300 KB, which suits a web page.

Tips for best results

  • Resize the dimensions first if the picture is far larger than it will be displayed; this saves more than quality changes alone.
  • Use PNG for graphics with sharp edges and transparency, JPEG or WebP for photographs.
  • Keep the original, because repeated lossy saving degrades quality.
