Image Compressor – Reduce Image Size Without Upload

Shrink photos for websites, WhatsApp and email. Everything happens in your browser.

Leave blank to keep size

How to use the Image Compressor

  1. Choose a JPG, PNG or WebP image.
  2. Pick an output format – WebP is usually smallest.
  3. Set quality (60–80% is a good balance) and an optional max width.
  4. Press Compress and download the result.

How image compression works

Photos from modern phones are often 3–8 MB. Most of that detail isn't visible on a screen. Lowering JPEG/WebP quality slightly and resizing to a sensible width (for example 1600 px) can cut file size by 70–90% with little visible difference.

Which format to choose?

  • JPG – best compatibility for photos.
  • WebP – 25–35% smaller than JPG at similar quality; great for websites.
  • PNG – lossless; use for screenshots and logos with text (quality slider has no effect).

Why compress?

  • Faster websites and better Google Core Web Vitals.
  • Meet upload limits on forms and portals.
  • Save phone storage and mobile data.

Your images are processed locally with the HTML5 Canvas – nothing is uploaded.

Frequently asked questions

Is my image uploaded to a server?

No. Compression happens entirely in your browser.

What quality should I use?

60–80% keeps photos looking good while greatly reducing size.

Why didn't my PNG get smaller?

PNG is lossless. Convert it to JPG or WebP for big savings.
