How the Image Compressor works
Images are decoded and re-encoded in your browser at the quality you choose. With a target size, the tool searches for the highest quality that fits and reduces the dimensions only if quality alone is not enough. A PNG with a size target is saved as JPEG, because PNG has no quality setting.
Every re-save of a JPEG loses a little detail, so compress from the original rather than an already compressed copy. Around quality 75 the difference is usually invisible on screen; screenshots with text look sharper as WebP.
Often used with: Compress Image to 100 KB, Compress PDF, JPG to PDF
Image Compressor: questions people ask
How much smaller will my photo get?
Phone photos usually shrink 60–85% at quality 75 with no visible difference. PNG screenshots shrink most when converted to WebP.
Can I compress to an exact size like 50 KB?
Yes. Enter a target in KB: the tool searches quality settings and, if needed, reduces dimensions until the file fits.
Is my data uploaded when I use the Image Compressor?
No. The Image Compressor runs entirely in your web browser, so your files stay on your device and work even on a slow connection.
