Image Compressor

Pick a JPEG or WebP quality level and shrink your image. Compare the before and after size and the reduction right away. Images are processed entirely in your browser and never uploaded.

Examples (click to try)

Load a sample image (800×600) and use the quality slider to see the before/after size difference.

Pick a JPEG, PNG, WebP or other image. The image you choose is processed inside your device only — nothing is uploaded.

How to Use the Image Compressor

Choose an image, then adjust the quality slider and output format to see the compressed image and the reduction right away. Watch the preview to find a good balance between how it looks and how small it gets.

  1. Use Choose an image to select the image you want to shrink.
  2. Move the Quality slider — lower values make smaller files (default is 80).
  3. Pick an Output Format, JPEG or WebP. WebP tends to be smaller for the web.
  4. When you're happy with it, press Download to save the file.

Example: a roughly 2.4MB (4000×3000) phone photo compressed to JPEG at quality 80 drops to about 480KB (around 80% smaller) while looking nearly identical. Lower the quality to 60 and it shrinks to about 300KB. Press 🖼 Try a sample image above and move the slider to watch the size change as you go.

When This Comes in Handy

  • Shrinking photos for a blog or social post so pages load faster
  • Getting an attachment under an email or chat size limit
  • Lightening images across a product page or portfolio
  • Making a high-resolution phone photo smaller while keeping it looking close to the original

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the image I select sent to a server?
No. All compression happens entirely in your browser. The image you select is never transmitted to or stored on any external server. You can use this tool with complete confidence.
Should I choose JPEG or WebP?
WebP usually produces smaller files than JPEG at the same quality, which makes it a good choice for the web. JPEG, on the other hand, opens reliably on older systems and in more apps. Pick whichever suits where the image will be used.
What happens to the image when I lower the quality?
Lowering the quality makes the file smaller, but fine details can start to show blur or noise. Watch the preview and find the lowest value that still looks acceptable. Around the default of 80 is a good starting point.
