Drop your image onto the page or choose it with the browse button.
The image opens in the local editor running in your browser tab.
Optionally use the Resize tab first; reducing dimensions is the single biggest lever for cutting file size.
Lower the quality setting when exporting to trade a little visual fidelity for a much smaller file.
Click Save and the compressed image downloads to your device.
File size limits are everywhere: forums that cap attachments, forms that reject anything over a few megabytes, email providers that bounce large photos. This compressor shrinks your image to a fraction of its original size by re-encoding it at a lower quality setting, and it does the whole job inside your browser.
It is the tool to use when a 12 MB phone photo needs to fit a 2 MB upload limit, when a website hero image is slowing your page down, or when you want to send a batch-free, quick single-image reduction before posting somewhere with strict size rules. You control the balance between sharpness and size, so you decide how far to push it.
100% private“Compression is performed by your own browser using local processing power. At no point does the image travel over the network, so nothing about your photo is ever visible to us or anyone else.”
Lossy formats like JPG and WebP discard fine detail as quality decreases, which shrinks the file. Dropping from maximum to a moderate quality often cuts size dramatically with little visible change, while very low settings save more space but introduce noticeable artifacts.
Saving to JPG or WebP at reduced quality is lossy, meaning some detail is permanently discarded in the exported copy. Your original file stays untouched on your device, so you can always re-export at a different setting.
No. This is one of the few compressors that works without any upload at all. The re-encoding runs locally in your browser, which also means it works just as fast on large files without waiting for a transfer.
