Why compress images

Phone photos are often 3–8 MB — far bigger than any website, email or form needs. Compressing to 70–80% quality and resizing to the size it will actually be displayed typically cuts 80–95% of the file size with no visible difference.

Hit a target size

Portals often ask for images under 100 KB, 200 KB or 1 MB. Lower the quality and set a maximum width until the result fits — the size updates as you adjust.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Are my images uploaded?

No. Images are processed with your browser's canvas — they never leave your device, so it's safe for ID photos, product shots and screenshots containing private information.

What quality setting should I use?

75–82% is the sweet spot for photos: big savings with no visible difference. Go lower for thumbnails; stay above 85% for images that will be printed.

Why did my PNG get bigger?

PNG is lossless, so the quality slider doesn't apply. Convert large PNG photos to WebP or JPG for real savings, and keep PNG for logos and screenshots.

Does compression remove metadata?

Yes. EXIF data such as GPS location and camera details is removed, which also saves a few kilobytes.
