Compress Image
Reduce the file size of a JPG, PNG, or WebP image while keeping the same format and dimensions. Perfect for getting under an upload limit, speeding up a website, or fitting more photos in an email. If an image is already small, we hand it back untouched rather than making it bigger.
What to expect
Compressing an image shrinks its file size while keeping the same format and dimensions — the everyday fix for an upload form that rejects anything over a fixed limit. Upload forms are notorious for it: a government or scholarship portal might cap photos near 200KB, exam and job applications sit between 50KB and 1MB, and a normal phone photo sails straight past.
Use it when the picture is right but the file is simply too heavy: a profile photo for a job application, an ID image for a bank KYC, or a gallery you want loading fast on mobile. The image looks the same to the eye; only the invisible redundancy is squeezed out, dropping the kilobytes the form is counting.
