How it works

  1. Step 1

    Add a photo

    Drop in a JPG, PNG, or WebP image you want to slim down.

  2. Step 2

    Set the quality

    Slide to balance file size against detail. A mid-range setting suits most photos.

  3. Step 3

    Save the smaller file

    Compare the before-and-after sizes, then download your compressed image.

Lighten your images for faster sharing

Large image files slow down websites, clog inboxes, and eat through storage. Compressing a photo trims away data your eyes barely notice, producing a much smaller file that still looks great. It’s one of the easiest ways to speed up a page or squeeze under an upload limit.

The quality slider puts you in charge of the trade-off. Toward the top you keep almost all the detail with modest savings; toward the middle you get big reductions that are usually invisible in everyday photos; near the bottom you get the smallest possible file for thumbnails or previews.

A clear before-and-after summary shows exactly how many bytes you saved, so you can dial in the right setting with confidence. Because the work happens in your browser, even private or sensitive images stay entirely on your device.

Pair compression with resizing when you need both smaller files and smaller dimensions, or convert between formats first. The related tools below make that easy.

Frequently asked questions

How much smaller will my image get?

It depends on the photo and the quality you pick. Detailed photographs often drop 60–80% in size at moderate quality with little visible difference.

What does the quality slider actually do?

It sets the JPEG encoding level. Higher keeps more detail and a larger file; lower squeezes the file down at the cost of some fine detail.

Can I compress PNG files too?

Yes. PNGs are re-encoded as high-quality JPGs, which usually delivers dramatic savings for photo-style images. Keep PNG if you need transparency.

Will compressing change the dimensions?

No — the width and height stay the same. If you also want smaller dimensions, use the resize tool before or after compressing.

Do you upload my photos to compress them?

No. Compression runs on your own device using the browser's Canvas engine, so your images are never sent anywhere.
