Cut the file size of JPG, PNG and WebP images. You decide how much quality to keep, and you can do a whole batch at once.

When you need this

This is the tool for when file size is the thing standing in your way — an application form that refuses anything over 2 MB, an email attachment that will not send, a shop admin page that quietly fails the upload. Those limits are usually arbitrary, but you still cannot get past them. How much sharpness you are willing to trade is different every time, so the decision is left on a slider rather than fixed for you.

Formats shrink for different reasons. JPG and WebP discard detail your eye is unlikely to miss. PNG is not allowed to discard anything, so it is reduced a different way — by cutting down how many distinct colours it has to remember. That is why the same quality setting takes a large bite out of a photograph and barely touches a logo.

Re-compressing a file that is already small sometimes makes it bigger. When that happens you get your original back instead, and the result says so. Handing you a larger file while calling it compression is not something a tool should do.

How to use it

  1. Pick your images or drop them in.
  2. Choose Smaller, Recommended or High quality — or drag the slider for a finer setting.
  3. Check the new size, then save one image or download them all as a ZIP.

Your files are never uploaded

Everything runs inside your browser. Because the image never reaches a server, we cannot store it or look at it. That difference matters when the file is company material or a personal photo.

Frequently asked questions

Will compressing ruin the picture?
At the recommended 82% the difference is hard to see. It varies by photo, so use “Compare with original” and judge for yourself.
Can a compressed file end up larger?
On an already well-optimised photo, yes. That is why we hand back the original whenever the result would be bigger. A compressor that grows your file makes no sense.
Why does my PNG barely shrink?
PNG exists to carry transparency, which makes it a poor fit for photographs. If you do not need transparency, convert it to JPG and it will shrink far more.
Is it free?
Yes. No account, no payment, no usage limit.
Are my files uploaded?
No. Everything happens inside your browser. A page that is already open keeps working even if you go offline.
How many images at once?
There is no count limit. Speed depends on your own device, because your computer does the work rather than a server.
