What is a image compressor?
An image compressor reduces the file size of a picture by lowering its quality slightly, so web pages load faster and uploads fit size limits. Our tool works inside your browser, so your photos are never uploaded.
How to use it
- Choose an image from your device.
- Select JPG or WebP and set the quality, usually 70 to 80 percent.
- Compare the file sizes, then download the compressed image.
Common uses
- Making scans fit scholarship portal upload limits
- Speeding up a WordPress website
- Sending photos by email or WhatsApp
- Saving phone storage
Tips
- Resize very large photos before compressing them.
- WebP files are usually smaller than JPG at the same quality.
- Avoid saving the same JPG again and again, because each save loses detail.
