Image Compressor
Select a JPG or PNG photo. It is compressed on your device — nothing is uploaded anywhere.
Why compress images?
Modern phone cameras produce 5–15 MB photos — far too large for quick sharing on WhatsApp, uploading to job portals, or attaching to emails with size limits. Compressing shrinks the file dramatically (often 70–90% smaller) while keeping the photo looking sharp on screens.
How this compressor works
- 100% private: your photo is processed with JavaScript inside your browser. It is never uploaded to any server.
- Quality slider: 70–80% is the sweet spot — big savings with no visible difference on phones and laptops.
- Resize option: shrinking a 4000 px photo to 1280 px alone can cut the size by 80%.
- Output format: images are saved as JPEG, the most efficient format for photos.
Frequently asked questions
Will compression ruin my photo quality?
At 70–80% quality the difference is virtually invisible on screens. Only go below 50% if file size matters more than quality (e.g. thumbnails).
Is there a file size limit?
No hard limit — but very large images (50 MB+) may be slow on older phones since everything happens on your device.
Can I compress PNG screenshots?
Yes. PNGs (including screenshots) are converted to JPEG, which is much smaller for photographic content. For graphics with sharp text, keep quality at 85%+.
Are my photos uploaded to your server?
Never. Open your browser's network tab while compressing — you'll see zero uploads. Your images stay on your device.
