- Press Compress images and download.
Faster websites and easier sharing
Smaller images load faster on websites, use less mobile data and fit email attachment limits. For most photos, Recommended compression saves 40–80% with no visible difference.
How small can a photo get?
- Phone photos of 3–6 MB usually shrink to 300–800 KB with no visible difference on screens.
- For an exact target such as “under 100 KB” or “20–50 KB” use Resize Image to KB.
- WebP gives the smallest files for websites; JPG is accepted everywhere.
Tips
- Reducing the pixel size (for example to 1600 px wide) saves more space than lowering quality alone.
- PNG screenshots with large single-colour areas compress well; PNG photos do not – convert them to JPG with PNG to JPG.
- Compress many pictures at once – they come back in one ZIP.
