How to use Image Compressor

  1. Choose a JPG, PNG, WebP or another image supported by your browser, up to 35 MB.
  2. Select WebP or JPG, adjust quality, and optionally set a maximum edge size or a target size in KB.
  3. Click Compress image and check the reported original and output file sizes.
  4. Download and visually inspect the result. Some images are already optimally compressed.

Example use

Reduce a 4000px photo to 1600px WebP, quality 75, for a faster-loading website image.

Why use this tool?

Use this free browser utility when you need a focused result without installing desktop software or creating an account. The workspace is designed for a single task, with the input, controls and output kept together.

Privacy, compatibility and limitations

Processing uses browser Canvas, may discard EXIF metadata, may change color profiles and cannot guarantee a target size. JPG removes transparency. PNG is lossless, so quality controls and target size do not guarantee shrinkage. Large images need device memory. Output can be larger than input if format/settings are unsuitable.

Before you download: Check the output visually or technically before replacing an original file. Browser support, device memory and source-file structure can affect results.

Questions about Image Compressor

Does the tool upload my photos?

No. Image processing runs locally in your browser.

What if the output is larger than the original?

The size report tells you. Try WebP, reduce dimensions or lower JPEG/WebP quality; do not replace the original if the result is larger.

Can I compress to a target size in KB?

You can request a target. The tool attempts to meet it by adjusting quality and dimensions; it reports when the target cannot be reached.
