Compress Image Online

What is image compression?

Image compression rewrites a photo so it uses fewer bytes while still looking good. It is the quick fix when an upload form rejects a 8 MB photo, a page loads slowly, or phone storage runs low. Instead of cropping precious content, you keep the same picture at a smaller size.

How to use this compress image tool

1. Click the file input and choose a JPG, PNG or WebP image.
2. Set the quality value between 10 and 100 (80 is a good start).
3. Press the Compress Image button.
4. Check the original versus compressed sizes, then download the file.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is image compression free?

Yes. Upload a photo, choose a quality level and download the compressed image without paying or signing up. Processing runs on the server.

What quality setting should I pick?

Start at 80 for a good balance of size and clarity. Use higher values near 90 for prints and lower values near 60 when you need the tiniest file for the web.

Will compressed photos look bad?

At sensible settings the difference is hard to notice. Very low values under 40 can show artefacts, so preview the saved percentage and stay above that for important photos.

Which image types work here?

JPEG, PNG and WebP uploads are supported. The compressed file keeps a matching format so it opens everywhere.
